IAR 01 - 7" The Copyrights "Button Smasher" <a href="http://itsaliverecords.bandcamp.com/album/button-smasher">Button Smasher by It's Alive Records</a> Release Date: September 2004 Test Pressing: 5 black vinyl First Pressing: 100 red vinyl, 100 gold vinyl, 100 black vinyl Second Pressing: 200 white vinyl Third Pressing: 500 black vinyl Cover Art: Adam Alive 01 - Button Smasher 02 - Let's Get The Fuck Out Of Here 03 - I'm Not Calling You 04 - Our Turn The Copyrights sound like the bastardized product of a first generation band of the pop punk explosion that happened back in the early 90's and a hell-bent group of kids on a mission to carve their name into the history of punk rock. That’s not to say that they sound like any of those golden-era lookout bands, but rather that they could have been one of those bands with their own sound and their own niche. A lot of the true pop punk sound often falls into a cookie-cutter cut-n-paste format, but these four tunes have enough originality and individuality to keep you guessing. Add that to the big guitars, beefy bass, solid danceable back-beat, backing vocals in all the right places, and Danny Vapid's little brother on lead vocals and you’ve got the recipe for a classic, top-notch punk rock record. Originality is hard to find in pop punk, but if it's what you're looking for, look no further.
