This band however is a new favourite, I'm really loving them right now and they are most played on my iPod. Front man Dave Hause has an awesome voice and they have a great sound. The earlier stuff is a bit more punk and recently they have been branching out with a more diverse sound, they have always been more on the melodic side of the punk spectrum rather than hardcore (some might say pop-punk but I don't think it's quite there). On their album 'Build and Burn' you can hear the rock and even a bit of country influence there. They have also done some covers on an earlier EP - Springsteen and Strummer which they put their own sound into and sound great (I liked their version of Johnny 99 better than the original). All-in-all they are a great well rounded sounding band and I hope they have a long future. Also hope they come to Korea so I can see them live, I have to say I think they would play a mean live show.
So if you don't know who I am talking about - the name of the band is 'The Loved Ones'. I had a hard time picking a song to showcase here (because I like quite a few of them) but I decided to go with one of their older ones as it was one of the first I heard.
