Album Review
Against Me! - The Original CowboyAgaint Me! - The Original Cowboy

Against Me! is a punk rock band from the US, The Original Cowboy is there 5th studio release.

Right from the off there's not much striking me as original about this band, its even seems that they sound a bit indie too.The songs are very punk in there length, no song breaks the 3 minute barrier except the last song which goes on and on at over 7 minutes.This is pretty much run of the mill punk music, someone once said learn 3 chords start a band, this seems a formula that's stuck too. There's nothing complex about this album and seems to have done in one take, its pretty raw, and seems to just blast by, im not sure whats going to take longer writing this review or listening to this album. Im sure a lot of work has gone into making this album but a bit more wouldn't have hurt, there's nothing much catchy about this album, it goes by with out grabbing your attention, for a 5th album, must do better for the 6th.

The Original Cowboy is out now,

2/5
