𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗠𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗱𝗼𝗻𝗲𝘀 - 𝗜𝗹𝗹 𝗮𝘁 𝗘𝗮𝘀𝗲

As an avid Screeching Weasel fan in my teens, I was always gonna be interested in Dan Schafer's The Methadones. This is their debut album released 20-odd years ago, and is probably one of my favourite pop-punk albums.

There's something about how Shafer's moderately-paced discrete-note singing style is complemented by the more frenetic (yet still measured) pace of the music; this is a toe-tapping, head-nodding, bluesy form of pop-punk. Plus it's genuinely a great album to listen to whilst driving (remember doing that?). 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗺 / 𝗗𝗼𝘄𝗻𝗹𝗼𝗮𝗱 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗙𝗿𝗲𝗲 (𝗰𝘂𝗿𝗿𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗹𝘆) / 𝗡𝗮𝗺𝗲 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗣𝗿𝗶𝗰𝗲 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺:
