Music Review: Strung Out - Blackhawks Over Los Angeles - Page 2

Looking at a different approach to political judgment, “A War Called Home” was an interesting song to listen to, especially the lyrics. More rock than punk at times, “Downtown” was a notable track as was the final track of the CD, “Diver.”

The evolution of punk rock these days makes me think that some bands try too hard or only do it for the money, not these guys. With the success of the Warped Tour, Hot Topic, and just the over all popularity of the word “punk”, I feel that the punk rock style has grown so much more than ever expected. Some folk say that punk is dead while others argue against them. I say screw them, I know what I like and if bands like Strung Out can keep putting albums out like Blackhawks Over Los Angeles then more power to them.
