3 seconds to ignition…
Motion City soundtrack.
Their sound is reminiscent of the catchy pop punk bands of the late 90’s with American Hi-Fi, New Found Glory, SR-71, and Sum 41; except they’ve got something else. A sentiment of maturity splash through the music, lyrically, vocally, and sonically. The combination of pop, punk, dance and rock is always infectious and Motion City Soundtrack certainly captures that well. They’ve been on the Vans Warped Tour. Their second album was helmed by former Blink 182 member and current +44 member, Mark Hoppus. Their current album, released on September 18th, is the natural and sequential step in the evolution of this band, with producers Adam Schlesinger (Fountains of Wayne), Eli Janney (Girls Against Boys), Rick Ocasek (The Cars) all on board molding the music on the album.
So everyone aboard…the train to Motion City is departing. Better have your iPod ready with your soundtrack.
