Reception
PUNKnews.ORG reports: Imagine that you made a mix tape of the following bands; Bad Religion, Blink 182, Pennywise, and Sublime and that's a pretty good idea what listening to Authority Zero's new album was like. This band out of Arizona plays a really good mix of skate/pop/ska punk usually never allowing two songs in a row to sound the same and occasionally changing styles in the middle of a song. The lyrics though out mostly follow the skate punk staple of doing your own thing and overcoming struggles ("Passage In Time [listen to the verse in this one and tell me that it doesn't sound like it was taken directly from "Society"]," "Over Seasons" and "Everyday"). This band also mixes up styles and languages on "LA Surf" which is a Dick Dale sounding song sung entirely in Portuguese.
