Pennywise
All or Nothing

We could have started with a hope for the future, without disregarding the past, but time flows fast, so fast, like water continuously flowing from streams, that it's necessary to move the clock hands forward and reflections with them.

It's already history, the return of the prodigal son Jim Lindberg to the main house, and the press release thanking the good Zoli Teglas (frontman of Ignite) for the work done. Basically, routine, typical of a coaching change.

Too bad, it seems, since it was thanks to him that I finally managed to delve deeply into the Pennywise material, a failed attempt a couple of years ago. Reference to "Full Circle".

But let's start from the end: why are two of the best things from the Hermosa Beach group relegated to the basements and pointed out as mere bonus tracks? Otherwise, the choice doesn't make sense when you hit the play button and trigger the explosion of "We're fallen" and "Locked in".

The moments where there is a greater prevalence of melody are the title track and the anthemic "Let us hear your voice".

Other notable moments include "United", which despite not having an extremely high cruising speed, carries a great energy also found in other tracks such as "X Generation", "All Along", and "Song Of Sorrow". Excellent work by Fletcher Dragge who delivers the usual massive and razor-sharp riffs ready to shake you, now a true trademark of the Hermosa Beach brand.
"Revolution" is probably the best track, enhanced, but it's a constant of all 14 tracks in the setlist, by Zoli Teglas's golden voice.

Surely, in the past year, a heartfelt album without dips and no concessions despite the recent Offspring. For me, a pleasant surprise.
