AUDIO: Direct Hit! – “Crown Of Nothing”
Milwaukee punks Direct Hit! are back with their eagerly anticipated full-length follow up to 2016’s “Wasted Mind”. Their new album, “Crown Of Nothing” is a step in a new direction for the band as a whole, evolving past contemporary pop punk into a more matured sound. Led by singles “Different Universe” and “Welcome To Heaven”, the band proved that they haven’t lost any of the intensity that made them standouts in the Milwaukee punk scene, and that they can still write catchy, pounding songs no matter what tempo they’re set at (though 56-second track “Pain/Boredom” is simply fast as fuck). While many bands on a larger label like Fat Wreck Chords falter at a sophomore album, Direct Hit! took a new route and succeed on this release. Check out “Crown of Nothing” below:
