Vancouver BC has a long power pop history. Right up there with The Subhumans and DOA was Pointed Sticks and Young Canadians. Even in later years, the city has had top drawer bands such as The Smugglers, Tranzmitors, and Nervous Talk pushing the pogo content to maximum fun. Corner Boys carry on this proud tradition perfectly: four songs to bounce along to with a big, goofy smile on your face. I keep flipping this damn thing over and over. Bonus points go out for doing a Simpletones cover that isn’t “I Like Drugs” or “I Have a Date.” I love this band, and if you have an ounce of fun in your heart, you will too. –Ty Stranglehold (Dirt Cult)
