Fast, loud, and full of attitude, these Florida boys have got everything it takes to make it as a punk band. The trick is that--as they've also proved on previous releases--they've got the hooks, harmonies, and rhythmic savoir faire to come across as a convincing pop group, if you like your pop on the hard side. While every tune on STICKS AND STONES teems with driving, hard-edged guitars and bristles with pounding drums and breakneck bass lines, it doesn't stop there. Though they're not exactly Steely Dan (and wouldn't THAT be a trip), New Found Glory utilizes plenty of melodic and harmonic smarts to spice up their sound without detracting one bit from the viscerality of it all. They even throw a few left hooks into the groove now and then, and how many of their earthbound peers can claim that?
