 The Corleones comfortably bridge that gap between the mosh pit and your girlfriend’s couch. |
The
Corleones Inferno Mafia manages to be well-produced, crisp, and undeniably punk without falling to either the prepackaged candy land gloss of Pop Punk (Blink-182, American Hi-Fi) or the desperately Anglophilic posing of Brit Punk Nostalgia (The Visitors, Gaza Strippers). Songs like "Paper Street Soap Company," their Fight Club anthem, show off their fun side, but The Corleones' sound places them well within the universe of Southwestern Punk as well – even though they owe more to the Bouncing Souls than to Buddy Holly. They're also one of those rare bands that manages to comfortably bridge that gap between the mosh pit and your girlfriend's couch. The Corleones just might pull you back from the plaid-clad abyss of Emo and remind you of why you liked punk in the first place. They might not be my first choice to open for The Ramones at the Vince Lombardi High School senior prom, but they're definitely the kind of band that makes you glad that you can dance and still look tough. Definitely see them live. If you still feel enough like a teenager to just let all that serious record nerd stuff go, get the album. –Morgan Rowe-Morris� |
