Less Than Jake - The Rest Of My Life / Don't Fall Asleep On The Subway

Being giants on the US 'punk' scene, Less Than Jake don't make any mistakes. From their latest LP 'In With The Out Crowd' comes this double A-side. Kicking off with The Rest Of My Life, a tear-jerker of epic proportions about lost friendship and love that comes complete with strings, acoustic guitars and more depth than Dashboard Confessional. It doesn't matter if you call it sell-out, musical growth or 'The All American Rejects-syndrome', it's got the works. In order to maintain some street-cred, Don't Fall Asleep On The Subway is classic LTJ goof-ska-punk that won't break ground but will certainly please hordes of kids with less imagination than a goldfish.
