In the spirit of our super mega pop-punk issue, the Neck Deep frontman tells us why New Found Glory's self-titled album is the closest to his heart.
"My favourite pop-punk album is New Found Glory’s self-titled album. I think that was probably the first album that me and my brother bought with our own money. We asked our mum like ‘please can we have this’ and it didn’t have the parental advisory sticker on it so we didn’t have to cover it up with another like, a sale sticker. I think it was one of the first albums where the lyrics genuinely sunk in and I really got hooked on the melodies. When I was six or seven years old, I fully remember 'Sincerely Me' being just melted into my brain."
