MDMRNAlbum Review: Goldfinger - Nine Lives
In high school, Goldfinger was one of my favorite bands. I heard a few songs off their new(ish) album Nine Lives and really liked them. So, I decided to pick it up digitally.
Overall, I liked the album. It felt more like formulaic pop punk with ska elements interspersed than I was expecting. Also of note: Most of the tracks are short. Like ~2 minutes long. Which is a shame.
Stand out tracks for me are Freaking Out a Bit which I already loved and features Mark Hoppus of blink-182. Also, Derelict featuring Spencer Charnas of Ice Nine Kills which is high energy punk.
Also, the song College about your kid going off to college...actually hits.
You can listen to it here and see for yourself. https://album.link/s/4UEpTKPsOwn4OVroUZa7Sq
