    Punkers and moshers brace yourself, Childhood plays grown-up punk. Is there a contradiction of terms here? In all reality though, these punks rock. This is the real McCoy. I've only been recently getting tuned into the punk scene, still holding securely to my heavy metal roots. These guys got something to say and they say it in-your-face. I have come to the conclusion that's what punkers are known for, BLUNTNESS. So that's what it takes these days it seems. To a world that's getting "hard of hearing", this "scream in your ear at point blank" approach is most appropriate. It's like "Am I Getting Through to You?" So, check it out. The words are there. It's the Gospel man, at a hundred miles an hour, okay? If that isn't radical enough, the drummer, Daren, plays guitar also. I gotta see that!
