Hardcore punk? You could have fooled me! With a nice acoustic ballad opener and then something that sounds more like it belongs on a metal album than a punk one, I'm beginning to wonder. I certainly like this so far, and I had not expected to in the least. Like it? I ****ing love it! Really surprised by this. Someone will tell me this is no way hardcore punk, but if it is, I need to start giving that subgenre a chance.
