This is a new quartet that does not play your average pop punk music: it is in fact a band that plays just for fun, with synth, rap singing and a lot of catchy hooks. Influenced from anything like Atom And His Package, Blink182, Weezer and Mc Lars, Hellogoodbye release an EP with six songs about having a blast: “Shimmy Shimmy Quarter Turn” opens the dances and it’s pure enjoyment as on tracks “Jesse Buy Nothing Go To Prom Anyways” and the final “Bonnie Taylor Shakedown 2k4″. The disc also has some more serious parts, as the six minute “Dear Jamie Sincerely Me”, which reminds me of Rivers Cuomo’s attitude a lot. Hellogoodbye is a fun band that has talent, and this songs are good, but overall, this EP is quite generic, as the band does not show too much personality through the songs.
