Artist Drowning
by Tim Wenger
Artist Drowning has become a big player in the works of our friends over at Literati Records, and it’s easy to see why. Their melodic brand of pop-punk brings us back to the glory days, when a quick flip of the radio dial would find you listening to Social Distortion, Rancid and Blink-182.
Artist Drowning throws in a touch of emotional lyricism and mixes it well with strong guitar work and prominent drumming. Songs like “Running Out of Time” show their slower side, but the majority of the time, the band sticks to the hard-driving, smooth sailing sounds of the distorted guitar. Definitely a solid listen.
