Coming back from my mini vacation yesterday, my friend Ben and I listened to punk the whole truck ride to and from the cities and ferry… and the last thing we put on was Alexisonfire, a band oh-so prominent at the end of my high school years and well in to the university days. And while I can’t say I’ve thrown on a screamo record in years (unless At The Drive In counts), hearing this really brought me back. After a day of great cycling and the emotion of saying goodbye to so many people I love and miss dearly, it was the perfect soundtrack; raw and heavy, with a large dose of youth energy. Not something I can listen to on the regular, but certainly welcome in the right time and place.
