Comeback WITHOUT the kid..

Owing to yesterday's live I just had to make a post about the Canadian hardcore/ punk band Comeback Kid. Despite the fact that I only saw 3 songs, the live was really strong. The crowd was amazing, the air filled with electricity (eventhough the heat was at the highest levels) and Comeback Kid increased the pressure. Closing with Wake the Dead, I think that everything came to a point where nothing could go wrong. There just ain't no words.....

One thing though was that the song- lineup was exactly the same as 3 years ago when I first saw them on West Coast Riot in Goteborg in Sweden. I guess we will experience "Symptoms & Cures" (released 2010) on the next live!

Reading about the band I was pleasently surprised to know that CBK was initialy ment to be a side project, since the formers Adrew Neufeld (vocals) and guitarist Jeremy Hiebert were also playing in the band Figure Four (which is now on a time- out). Since 2002 the band's popularity has been growing, mostly word of mouth, since the scene is rather social, we might say....

Starting off with Facedown Records they released their first album in 2003, Turn it Around. Their most recent release Symptoms & Cures was with Victory Records, as their previous ones like Broadcasting and Wake the Dead.
