Jawbreaker Anyone?, February 24, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: A Working Title In Green (Audio CD)
Blueline Medic treads the line between straight up emotional indie rock and your average emotional punk band (what's the distinction? -- who knows these days?), with a intriguing, but albeit, typical debut. From the Blake Schwarzenbach (Jawbreaker and presently Jets to Brazil) vocals to an style of music that moves from a medium to slow rock, Blueline Medic seems content blending in with the crowd, lacking a sense of urgency in their style that works so well for many bands of this genre. The album definitely has its high points, with the song "Swan Song Swan Dive," the singer's vocals manage to sound genuine, and the lyrics coincide with the music beautifully, and moments like these make me eager for a full length to see just what this band can do, but as a whole, the album will probably blend in with the countless other bands emerging from the punk/emo scene. Worth a listen for fans of the aforementioned Jawbreaker.
