It was a sad day in 2007 when Rufio decided to call it quits.
New Jersey pop-punk outfit Man Overboard released an album Tuesday that every pop punk band will be trying to duplicate in the future.
New Politics ultimately sounds formulaic; it eventually lacks the initial pep that draws you into what this Danish band potentially has to offer. The songs are textbook from beginning to end; they are decent for what it’s worth, but there is no noticeable sheen in them.

California’s kings of summery rock anthems have released their third album just in time to beat the inevitable heat, and with Eureka the band have once again proven their ability to craft a timeless record collection of fun-in-the-sun jams.
The band mostly known for a cover of Lil Wayne’s “Lollipop†has released its sophomore album, and unfortunately the original tunes fall a little short.
