Decades is a fitting entry in the band’s catalog to celebrate this achievement; it’s equal parts heavy and silly, channeling the Scranton, PA five-piece’s penchant for the macabre throughout its twelve songs.
Dear God demonstrates the mercurial nature of Taylor Momsen as she desperately tries to find light in the darkness, while often letting that same darkness encompass her like a warm blanket. This album is the two-faced nature of depression, personified through music.
Throughout its eleven songs, Charli XCX seems to be working against everything we’ve ever known about her, and the result is more museum art piece than Top 40 radio hit. I think that’s the point.
The Good Ole American Saturday Night, the twelfth album from the Boston-based ska punk band, is an eruption of good vibes and calls for hopefulness in these disparate times.

Plus Tax hits the nail on the head and gives a strong introduction to a promising new band.
