by Tim SendraTwo song titles from the Huntingtons first album for Fast Music, Self-Titled Album serve as reference points for the sounds found within: "3 Chord Baby" and "The Sound (Of Inevitability"). Simple punk-pop rules the day, every day, all day. The band is stuck in a rut of mildly melodic short/fast tunes influenced by the Ramones. Some bands, like Green Day or Rancid, can make a formula like this work by the dint of their outsized hooks, cartoony personas, or sheer commitment. The Huntingtons just sound like some dudes who like to get together and play punk rock. Commendable for sure, but that doesn't mean it is essential listening. Fans of the band will certainly find plenty to like here, as this record sounds like a carbon copy of all their previous efforts. If you aren't a fan, nothing here is likely to convert you.
