The mystery tramps :: We are the mystery tramps

Over the course of 7 cuts this Lynnfield, Massachusetts band moves in a lot of different directions and handles them all like pros. Starting things off is "Hard To Resist", a tune with a melodic punk vibe, but with a sound that really sets them apart from the pack ("Last In Line" is another cut with this same feel). Next up is "Actors", a catchy track that strangely enough sounds to me like a poppier version of Bad Religion if they threw in some new wave. The next two songs continue the diversity with the angular melodic punk of "She Said" and the jangly rock of "Red Handed". The four-piece closes the disc with a bang with the aggressive punk of "Say Good Night" and a remixed version of "Actors". We Are The Mystery Tramps is really fun disc that shows great promise for this band.
