A Dying Race

Okay, let’s get this out of the way up front. Yes, this trio hails from the same town as Avril Lavigne (Napanee, Ontario), but do not make the mister of thinking they’re just a bunch of tank top and tie-wearing sk8r boi poseurs. They are the real punk rock deal. Immediately recalling the positive force and youth crew movements of the early ’80s in both tone and tempo, this ten-song sophomore effort bristles with the vibrant voice of a generation that is typically ignored. But ADR’s brand of speedcore make it damn hear impossible to ignore their pleas for a more compassionate and caring world.
