Rekless Youth “Open your eyes”

reklessyouthOpen your eyes is the first release by this group of shiftless layabout teenagers from WINGATE, North Carolina. If these kids were on my front lawn I wouldn’t kick them off but would instead make them drink until they puked.

First I have to say how adorably punk rock these guys are. I mean Seriously these kids of so young and punk you just want to squeeze their cheeks and dump a PBR on them. The one thing I can say is they really do have an awesome sound that isn’t just a mixed up mash of the first albums they have heard or their inspirations of punk. They don’t sound just like the Causalities for example (I was expecting this) but instead have an awesome gritty basic punk rock sound with a strange uk punk sound which is odd for southern folks too have.

I personally love these types of releases from super young punk rockers. It always makes me think of back when I was younger and brings back the “world view” I had when I was their age which is something every old punk rocker needs to experience as often as possible. The album is tight and well done and pretty much entertaining. The lyrics are what you would expect from young punk rockers which I guess are not bad at all.

I would have to say check out this album. Not only will you be supporting some awesome punk rocker kids but you will also get a kick ass album.
