Trust me, I tried to get an advance but we&#8217;re a one-man DIY operation, and not <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/music\/music-album-reviews\/blink-182-one-more-time-album-review-1234856549\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Rolling Stone<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>So what is there to expect of <em>&#8216;One More Time\u2026&#8217;?\u00a0<\/em>For starters, Tom DeLonge is back in the\u00a0<strong>blink-182<\/strong> fold. Unlike 2011&#8217;s <em>&#8216;Neighborhoods&#8217;<\/em> mismatched creation, he, Mark Hoppus and Travis Barker, recorded <em>&#8216;One More Time\u2026&#8217;<\/em> together in the same studio, with Barker taking on production duties.<\/p>\n<p>If there&#8217;s one thing to state from its preceding singles, it is that\u00a0<em>&#8216;One More Time\u2026&#8217;<\/em> won&#8217;t entirely lean on the legacy Tom, Mark, and Travis.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/alreadyheard.com\/staging\/blink-182-dance-with-me\/\"><em>&#8216;Dance With Me&#8217;<\/em> <\/a>is an infectious tale of young love with Hoppus&#8217; and Barker&#8217;s rhymic rumble.\u00a0<em>&#8216;Fell In Love&#8217;<\/em> is a playful, sun-soaked track that is the weakest of the bunch. Whereas <em>&#8216;Edging&#8217;<\/em> is considerably a bridge between the familiar and new <strong>blink<\/strong>. It&#8217;s a punchy and catchy number that has an annoying hook that you want to hate, but you keep coming back to it.<\/p>\n<p><em>&#8216;More Than You Know&#8217;<\/em> thrives due to its punk rock injection, partly due to Barker&#8217;s precise drumming. &#8216;<em>You Don\u2019t Know What You\u2019ve Got&#8217;<\/em> tilts towards\u00a0<em>&#8216;One More Time\u2026&#8217;<\/em> sentimental core. Its steady pacing and plucky bass provides the track with a sense of familiarity and a hint of wiseness. Yet, its simplistic, repetitive chorus makes the track pretty forgettable.<\/p>\n<p>Then there&#8217;s the title track.\u00a0<em>&#8216;One More Time&#8217;<\/em> is\u00a0<strong>blink-182<\/strong> at their most honest and raw. Touching on the turbulent relationship between the trio have had for the best part of 20 years (mostly because of DeLonge), its stripped back, allowing DeLonge and Hoppus to be frank, not to just their fans, but to themselves and each other. Casual listeners will likely find the track to be overly sappy, yet for the wealth of longtime fans, it&#8217;s a sentimental, heart-tugging celebration of friendship.<\/p>\n<p>If the six tracks on offer have given us anything, it is that\u00a0<em>&#8216;One More Time\u2026&#8217;<\/em> is going to be a rollercoaster of emotions, especially with 17 songs on offer. However, having witnessed them on their recent UK tour, the new songs are, and will be, very much\u00a0<strong>blink-182<\/strong> at their core. Driving rhythms, hooky choruses, a dose of emotional sentiment, and a touch of juvenile humour.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"blink-182 - DANCE WITH ME (Official Video)\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/LUEYNuVeA9Y?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_94407\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-94407\" style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"knucklepuck\" class=\"size-large wp-image-94407\" src=\"https:\/\/alreadyheard.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/KNUCKLE-PUCK-LAUNCH-PHOTO-BY-Andy-Eclov--1000x668.jpeg\" alt=\"KNUCKLE PUCK 2023 \/ Andy Eclov\" width=\"800\" height=\"534\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/alreadyheard.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/KNUCKLE-PUCK-LAUNCH-PHOTO-BY-Andy-Eclov--1000x668.jpeg 1000w, https:\/\/alreadyheard.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/KNUCKLE-PUCK-LAUNCH-PHOTO-BY-Andy-Eclov--300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/alreadyheard.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/KNUCKLE-PUCK-LAUNCH-PHOTO-BY-Andy-Eclov--768x513.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/alreadyheard.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/KNUCKLE-PUCK-LAUNCH-PHOTO-BY-Andy-Eclov-.jpeg 1500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-94407\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo Credit: Andy Eclov<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>Knuckle Puck &#8211; Losing What We Love<\/h2>\n<p>It&#8217;s kinda strange to think it&#8217;s eight years since\u00a0<strong>Knuckle Puck<\/strong> delivered their memorable full-length debut,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/alreadyheard.com\/staging\/album-review-knuckle-puck-copacetic\/\"><em>&#8216;Copacetic&#8217;<\/em>.<\/a> Since then, they&#8217;ve built a reasonably strong arsenal of songs to maintain their status. It&#8217;s found the Chicago group as one of modern pop-punk&#8217;s more renowned band, yet they&#8217;ve never dared to stray from the genre.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, <em>&#8216;Losing What We Love&#8217;<\/em> doesn&#8217;t look to end that trend. Don&#8217;t get me wrong, it&#8217;s an acceptable outing and provides everything you want from a\u00a0<strong>Knuckle Puck<\/strong> record; hooks, introspective lyrics, and emotional melodies. But this fourth outing cautiously leans towards &#8220;playing it safe&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Sure, they&#8217;ve torn off the optimistic lyrical band-aid to take a more straightforward approach. Whether that&#8217;s on seeing through someone&#8217;s BS on <em>\u2018You &amp; I\u2018<\/em><em>,<\/em> or the constant feeling of being on the receiving end of bad luck (<em>\u2018A New Beginning\u2018)<\/em>,\u00a0<strong>Knuckle Puck<\/strong> are dipping their songwriting toes in a ruthless pool, yet never full cannonballing into it.<\/p>\n<p>Musically, <strong>Knuckle Puck<\/strong> have never been a band to hold tightly onto the effervescent pop-punk tropes, always showing a willingness to rein things in. <em>&#8216;Groundhog Day&#8217;<\/em>\u00a0 and the sentimental closer <em>&#8216;Fool&#8217;<\/em>, highlight their emo tendencies neatly. The former is dynamically executed, while the latter dwells in its reminiscent skin with plucky guitars and steady beat.<\/p>\n<p>In contrast,\u00a0<em>&#8216;Out of Touch&#8217;<\/em> shines thanks to its bright guitars courtesy of Nick Casasanto and Kevin Maida. Whereas the title track highlights their tried-and-tested formula of combining punchy pop-punk with softer, harmonious passages. <em>&#8216;Worlds Apart&#8217;<\/em> allows drummer John Siorek and bassist Ryan Rumchaks to shine equally. Siorek provides colourful drum patterns while Rumchaks&#8217; bass lines are ideally sturdy.<\/p>\n<p>Like a lot of\u00a0<strong>Knuckle Puck<\/strong>&#8216;s output,\u00a0<em>&#8216;Losing What We Love&#8217;<\/em> is just\u00a0<em>fine<\/em> with only a handful of tracks you&#8217;re likely to come back to. After four albums, the quintet have crafted a reassuring style that hardly evolves. For example, Joe Taylor&#8217;s vocals ebb and flow with a distinctiveness, while his bandmates stir up a tonally warm brand of emo pop-punk. The die-hards will find little to complain about, but those wanting to hear more risks will be left disappointed.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Knuckle Puck &quot;The Tower&quot; (Official Music Video)\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/sk0S6s0rhEQ?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_94384\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-94384\" style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"callousdaoboys\" class=\"size-large wp-image-94384\" src=\"https:\/\/alreadyheard.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/TheCallousDaoboys_NickKarp-1000x667.jpg\" alt=\"The Callous Daoboys promo photo 2023 \/ Photo Credit: Nick Karp\" width=\"800\" height=\"534\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/alreadyheard.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/TheCallousDaoboys_NickKarp-1000x667.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/alreadyheard.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/TheCallousDaoboys_NickKarp-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/alreadyheard.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/TheCallousDaoboys_NickKarp-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/alreadyheard.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/TheCallousDaoboys_NickKarp.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-94384\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo Credit: Nick Karp<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>The Callous Daoboys &#8211; God Smiles Upon The Callous Daoboys<\/h2>\n<p>How do you remind everyone you&#8217;re one of the most bat-shit crazy bands around? By releasing a three-track onslaught that packs in more than it has any right to do so. This is\u00a0<strong>The Callous Daoboys<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>The Atlanta mob turned heads last year with their second full-length, <em>&#8216;Celebrity Therapist&#8217;<\/em>. It saw them produce a kaleidoscopic mix of hardcore, avant-garde jazz, mathcore, and ambient interludes in the most seamlessly jarring way possible. Just a year or so on, they&#8217;re now back with\u00a0<em>&#8216;God Smiles Upon The Callous Daoboys&#8217;<\/em>. Which considerably crams in all those aforementioned styles and more in under 15 minutes.<\/p>\n<p>The first 40 seconds of opener,\u00a0<em>&#8216;Pushing The Pink Envelope&#8217;\u00a0<\/em>involves a brief moment of calmness, a blast of metal, before breaking into a fleeing bit of electronica. Within the next minute, we&#8217;re given a hefty breakdown, a slice of crooning lounge music, and a quickfire blast of EDM. On paper, this sounds like a complete and utter mess, but <strong>TCD <\/strong>doesn&#8217;t make the musical changes feel forced. As massive, metalcore guitars take over the track, Carson Pace demonstrates his vocal versatility, showcasing the band&#8217;s capability to write towering hooks.<\/p>\n<p><em>&#8216;Waco Jeans&#8217;<\/em> embraces\u00a0<strong>TCD<\/strong>&#8216;s technical proficiency and combines it with a reasonably stable structure. Daniel Hodsdon and Maddie Caffrey&#8217;s guitars blare out relentlessly as bassist Jackie Buckalew and drummer Matthew Hague anchor down a rhymic chug. Pace matches the sheer ferociousness vocally, making the track a powerful and muscular onslaught.<\/p>\n<p><em>&#8216;Designer Shroud of Turin&#8217;\u00a0<\/em>sees <strong>TCD<\/strong> head back into more chaotic territory.

Now two years on, the quintet find themselves part of the\u00a0<strong><br \/>\nProsthetic Records<\/strong> roster, and with a new album. While its predecessor was a jagged collection, &#8216;In My Saddest Dreams, I Am Beside You&#8217; is delivered with conscious intent.<\/p>\n<p><em>&#8216;Good Reasons to Freeze to Death&#8217;<\/em> opens the album in a radiant manner with vocalist KZ Staska setting out the stall for the loose narrative of a character dealing with Borderline Personality Disorder. While Aki McCullough and Ryan Couitt&#8217;s guitars ring out, contrasting Staska&#8217;s more vocally harsh moments.<\/p>\n<p>As &#8216;<em>In My Saddest Dreams\u2026&#8217;<\/em> settles into its ebb and flow, you become aware of\u00a0<strong>Dreamwell<\/strong>&#8216;s melodic nuance. Whether that&#8217;s the opening minute or so of\u00a0<em>&#8216;Studying the Greats in Self-Immolation&#8217;<\/em> or\u00a0<em>&#8216;Lord Have MRSA On My Soul&#8217;<\/em> hinting at a pulsating slice of melodic post-hardcore before taking the leash off with Anthony Montalbano&#8217;s batter ram drumming,\u00a0or\u00a0<em>&#8216;Reverberations of a Sickly Wound&#8217;<\/em> drifting along with swelling guitars and Staska&#8217;s spoken word delivery.<\/p>\n<p>However,\u00a0<strong>Dreamwell<\/strong> are still classified as a screamo band, and they live up to the label. For example,\u00a0<em>&#8216;All Towers Drawn in the Equatorial Room&#8217;<\/em> is venomous, partly due to guest vocals from Nick Holland (Wounded Touch). It sinks its teeth into sludgy heaviness, building a hypnotic picture of descent, crashing into a land of madness.\u00a0<em>&#8216;Obelisk of Hands&#8217;<\/em> chugs along savagely before Logan St. Germain of ANKLEBITER provides an angelic clean vocal. <em>&#8216;Blighttown Type Beat&#8217;<\/em> teases to be drenched in a wall of feedback, yet heads in a panic-stricken direction with anxiety-ridden lyrics and a riveting bass line courtesy of Justin Soares. Whereas <em>&#8216;Body Fountain&#8217;<\/em> is simply a minute-long rampage.<\/p>\n<p>The lengthy pairing of\u00a0<em>&#8216;I Dream&#8217;t of a Room of Clouds&#8217;<\/em> and\u00a0<em>&#8216;Rue de Noms (Could Have Been Better, Should Have Been More)&#8217;<\/em> round out the album perfectly. The former sends you into a mesmerising daze with its gradual build, leading to an empowering wall of sound. It&#8217;s followed by a cathartic finale that goes back and forth between drifty verses dominated by Soares&#8217; dwindling bass line and Staska&#8217;s angst-stricken and Montalbano&#8217;s pummelling chorus.
