Product Details

Pop-punk has always had a complicated relationship with sincerity, but The Wonder Years built their entire identity around it. By the time this 2013 full-length arrived, the Philadelphia band had already refined their blend of anthemic hooks and unflinching emotional honesty on *Suburbia I've Given You All and Now I'm Nothing*, and *The Greatest Generation* pushed that trajectory further, landing them at the top of a scene hungry for music that actually meant something.


The Greatest Generation is a realistic record. It s three guitars turned way the f*ck up. It s a rhythm section that s trademarked by broken cymbals and bloody bass strings, and Soupy and the band screaming their hearts out of their chests until you feel every moment of desperation and every moment of joy in the songs. The Greatest Generation is about the fact that we as a generation can become the people we are meant to be.
