This latest offering from Melbourne-based outfit Wishful Thinking is high in energy and oozes character. Incredibly catchy hooks and clever lyrics run throughout and it would be easy to make comparisons with the likes of The Offspring, Blink 182 and Relient K. While their brand of punk rock may be nothing particularly new, the three-piece deserve credit for producing an album full of good songs. "Eternity" points to the underlying message of the band ("I still believe in what he said/I still believe that Jesus bled"), while tracks such as "I've Lost My Lovin' For Country" explore more humorous and light-hearted themes. Worth buying for the hilarious bonus tracks alone!
