It's just not fair.
Yesterday, I drove my big smelly diesel truck over to my buddys motorcycle shop, filled an old rusty oil drum with gasoline soaked rags and my musical catalog, lit the whole bunch on fire, and watched the sun set over what used to be the GM plant. It was kind of sad, but liberating. And it was all Tim Tully's fault!
Great googa mooga, can this guy write a song. His sound is so original, well thought out, and presented that it's like having someone smother you with cherry cotton candy. You're lungs are burning and you're loosing consciousness, but it's such a sweet cloud of pillowy wonder that you forget all the bad in the world and just give in to the joy.
A lesser man might be petty and hate Mr. Tully for making such great music look and feel so easy. A greater man would sign Mr. Tully to a recording contract and publishing deal. The guy's a song writing machine. I am not certain about this, but I wouldn't be surprised to find that Mr. Tully rises in the morning from his usual great nights sleep, and already has four new and perfectly developed songs ready to go.
As for this latest gem, well, let's just say he did it again. Great hook. Great melody. Great performance. There is just layer upon layer of guitars and vocals that I find it hard to believe this is just one guy. Perhaps he, in his spare time off from writing some of the best pop punk songs you'll have the priviledge to hear, has also discovered the secret to human cloning? I imagine him siting in a basement studio somewhere, with five identicle reproductions of himself, discussing and performing, and agreeing with himself(s) that this is what great music should be and sound like. By the way, the fifth clone would be the engineer.
What you have here is just pure, raw talent. Talent that is leagues above and beyond any other artists that I have heard on this site. Keep the hits coming! I'm adding this to my playlist, and will be forcing my friends to listen. If they don't like it, I can always find more friends. Good music, no, great music, is much more valuable and rewarding.

happy
Nice 60's garage feel with the big downbeat chorus. Fun song overall. Rhythm guitar is a little hot during the short solo section. Wait...I'm now singing along. I really like the energy and almost can envision this as a sitcom theme song. I wish the vocal harmonies were a little richer and more prominent. Otherwise, no problems here. Good song.

I
don't care either...
when i dream i dream about
songs written like this... solid... great vocals... good
guitars... let me listen again... nice... i love the guitar
tones... solo kinda lame though...
- cunex2sday from Fort Lauderdale, Florida
nofx,
yes effects
right from the getgo, i like tones
and effects...solid production sound guys! drums are a bit
sporadic, but it fits within the style of this genre. vocals
are good for punk, but the lyrics are a bit contrived. i like
the handclaps during the second verse, and the half-time
chorus is a nice change-up. vocalist reminds me NOFX...shich
is a really good thing. tasteful solo, but maybe a bridge with
different chord structure might spice up the continuity for
this tune. great job tho...highly sellable track!
- artyds from

poppy
90's feeling
nice poppy punk song i like the
harmonies and stuff. has a good happy feel to it i like
it.
- jazzflap from Kingston, Pennsylvania
It's
Good Pop Punk
Yea this is the kinda song you
wanna hear when you think pop punk.The beat was good.Melody
was catchy as were the lyrics.The vocals sounded like the
average punk band..but isnt that what you want when it somes
to punk?This is punk ..just that simple
- Jcbreadus from Land Of Oz, Kansas
power?
Rad intro, reminds me of Andrew
w.k! vocals are abit too winey, instruments are ok and back
ups lack abit of power! overall an average pop punk song,
needs better arrangement. has potential, needs a better
hook.
- powdermunki2000 from Somerset West, Cape Town,
South Africa
Nice
poppy indie song
I like the way the song starts
out exciting. Then it takes an unexpected twist by playing a
cleaner sound during the verse. The chorus is all happy and
there is nice layering with the the guitars and vocals and
harmonies. The break down and bridge is not bad. The vocals
are spotty in a couple places, but overall good.
- RudeKing from Chicago, Illinois
Can't
think of a headline
It's a little catchy number.
The guitars are pretty much straight forward, simple. The
guitar solo is quite simple as well. But simplicity is not
always bad. With this song it fits perfectly. Please don't
take this completely badly but the song is a little cut and
paste in its arrangement. Nothing really stood out. The chorus
was catchy, but it has been done before. But what can I say
everything's been done before, and you guys do it better than
most of the other bands that I've heard. Drumming does a good
job I like the intro rhythm and the hand claps add a level of
light heartedness. Drum fills are adequate, but the change up
into the second chorus is a little strange. But the drummer
does good stuff and just doesn't sit there playing some hi hat
snare beat. It picks up at the end. Bass is nowhere to be
found. I think it was just following along so I couldn't hear
it unerneath everything else. Make the song your own, bass
player. Add some stuff so people can say "did you hear that
bass player? He did some good stuff." Now vocals you've got
melody and precision with pitch. By far the vocals take the
song with it's sing along chorus melody. You guys do all
right.
- bandelasd from Baldwin Park, California
good
I really like the hook in this
song...the beat is great it makes me want to dance...the
lyrics and the vocals sound good...the balance could be a
little better
- heyupunk740 from Galveston, Texas
relief
very catchy. nice harmonies.
everything fits perfectly together. first song on here that i
would listen to again.
- flamingspatulas from Narragansett, Rhode Island
review
stating off good....music is
pretty good....voice is good but I dont think this style of
music is your style....song is ok not as punk as I like to
hear....
- LinusX from
Atlanta/Now Portland Or., Georgia
Catchy as love
I really enjoy the happy
opening. It makes me want to bob my head, and feel lovely. The
vocals aren't exactly what I would listen to, but I still
enjoy it. When the lead singer says ", When I dream about
you," he somehow makes the harmonies sound awkward and wierd.
Overall good stuff.
- Jasonh2n from Austin, Texas
Sweet
"skies turn blue from another
shade of gray"- i like this line, but did you get it from
MXPX. you guys sound great. only problem is there could be a
little more energy in the song, however, all the instruments
sound good. the outro is cool. new lyrics and all, then back
to the main line "when i dream about you" nice song.
- secondpicture from North Charleston, South
Carolina
review.
go listen to the ziggens, you'd
love em. I dont mind this track at all. the vocals need to be
pushed back a little, the singer has an 'in yo face'
character, lower in the mix will do magic for it. aquabats
come to mind too, must be the back ups, nice ending, i really
dig that.
