Cut from the same cloth as
Hit The Lights, Sing It Loud and countless other polished pop-punk acts from the US of A, Detroit’s
Fireworks have made a decent stab at denting a saturated market with this, their debut full-length. The
New Found Glory influence is overwhelming (understandable as
Chad Gilbert handles production duties here), but there’s enough going on within tracks like ‘I Support Same-Sex Marriage’ and the rabble-rousing ode to their hometown, ‘Detroit’, to give them a leg up above their many, many peers. For those that see pop-punk as more than a fair-weathered friend,
Fireworks are a safe bet this winter.
