Alli With An I are yet another of seemingly endless bands that play lovesick melodic punk. In a vacuum, they might be considered catchy, but you've heard this band before. (For my part, when I put this one on, I could have sworn that I was listening to The Commercials from a few years back.) Lyrically, nothing really stands out and the same can be said about the music. They are tight instrumentally (the vocals go off-key from time to time), but that will only carry a band so far.
