You won't be sorry. Are you in the mood for some punk rock? If so, the Chicago based band called The Broadways might just be the band your looking for. Fast punk rock that has the ability to set itself apart from counterfeit punk bands, as well as the talent to be very melodic at the same time they are pounding the beats into your head. If the ability to play very infectious, heart pounding, melodic punk rock isn't talent, I don't know what is. And on their four song EP they serve up everything hot and spicy, just the way punk rockers like it.
