What it's about:
These Warped Tour darlings hail from San Francisco. Although I didn't spot that in their sound while I was listening to them, they definitely have a very refined and fast-paced punk rock sound.
I would not call SYG "heavy" with their musical style. Although they scream, they are not screamo. They are somewhere in between, and they flavor their music with a refined style that I cannot put a finger on.
The best songs on the CD are easily Summer Jam and The Few That Remain. These guys are definitely going in my summer playlist this year!

Rocks a little like:
"Don't Let Her Pull You Down" (by New Found Glory, off the CD Not Without A Fight)
"State of The Union" (by Rise Against, off the CD Siren Song of the Counter Culture)

  1. Your music blog is a lot better than mine. You have tracklists, album art, and to the point, helpful descriptions. Nice. I'd better check this band out.
