No, This Is Patrick! releases high energy full length
Today Nashville pop punk purveyors No, This Is Patrick! released their first full length album on all music platforms. The album was lead off two weeks ago by the single and video ‘Where’s the Giant, Mansley?!’ which opens up the record. ‘Mansley’ perfectly encapsulates NTIP!’s sound in one go, blending catchy hooks, galloping guitars, rumbling bass, and blazing drums into a heavy pop punk perfection. Track 2, ‘Alas, Earwax’, slows down just a little for an epic breakup ballad that still has room for a punishing breakdown. Things speed back up significantly with track 3, ‘Ehhh, Dan?’, a pulse pounding song about defeating the awful rush of anxiety and panic attacks. ‘Come Around’ is classic love song that throws back to the catchiest of pop punk from the late 90s. Afterwards the album takes a single moment to be a little bit quiet on ‘M.C.B.’, a more emo/indie flavored track about standing up for yourself and moving on. ‘Buttz Carlton’ is a fast blend of punk, metal, that talks about something we can all relate to: HATING YOUR JOB. Next up is ‘Incredibly Sad Wizards’ a straightforward punk styled song for those of us who have trouble focusing….. ANYWAY, after ‘Wizards’ comes ‘Unincorporated Ducktown’, a song for people being blamed by our elders for the problems created by those same elders. Before the finale No, This Is Patrick! once again show off their arrangement prowess with a thunderous version of the 90s acoustic hit by Extreme ‘More Than Words’. To close out the album ‘Tornado’ brings the speed back and takes the record full circle with fast beats, chugging riffs, and soaring melodies. This self titled album is just a taste of what’s to come from No, This Is Patrick!
