It was just a matter of time before we covered this instant classic, the debut full length "Chroma", by Cartel. The first of the Warped Tour bands we'll be getting into over the next few months.. so it's time to roll the windows down, and get carried away!When you think of 2005, and what albums were important, and getting the most attention, Chroma tops the list.AND IF YOU'RE NOT GETTING ANSWERS, ASK BETTER QUESTIONS.Official Site : https://cartelrocks.com/Say Anything (video) : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hxcVORJ4SB8Honestly (video) : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ZgfzUd7gNs&list=RD_ZgfzUd7gNs&start_radio=1Alternative Press article : https://www.altpress.com/cartel-chroma-20th-anniversary-interview/Luckie St. Beer collaboration : https://chorus.fm/news/cartel-announces-new-beer-collaboration/Warped Tour Montreal : https://www.vanswarpedtourcanada.com/EPISODE PLAYLISTApple - https://music.apple.com/ca/playlist/the-pod-punk-cast-s1-e10-cartel-chroma/pl.u-BNAvxxeTpdpZ8MSpotify - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0M40NY9waqJqFyM9HdaOYl?si=bus6tjf0Q66OUZiQdFsFpA&pi=fiTfaXOySXazb

Her Royal Highness, the Pop-Punk Princess from Napanee, Ontario is in, as we discuss her debut album from 2002, Let Go.Whether you consider this record pop-punk, pop-rock, or pop-country.. you're absolutely right, because it checks all the boxes.So don't go choosing weed over Avril, because this is the best selling album of the 21st century by a Canadian artist, and she's anything but ordinary.Official Site : https://avrillavigne.com/Complicated (video) : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5NPBIwQyPWESk8er Boi (video) : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TIy3n2b7V9k&list=RDTIy3n2b7V9k&start_radio=1I'm With You (video) : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dGR65RWwzg8&list=RDdGR65RWwzg8&start_radio=1Losing Grip (video) : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LOcKckBLouM&list=RDLOcKckBLouM&start_radio=1Mobile (video) : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9eJDRjXWfX8&list=RD9eJDRjXWfX8&start_radio=1Closet Monster - "A Fight For What Is Right" (1999) : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RPms7NGNeuM&list=RDRPms7NGNeuM&start_radio=1Pitchfork Review (2018) : https://pitchfork.com/reviews/albums/avril-lavigne-let-go/My World DVD Documentary : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3TR5sL3pWZcMy World DVD Concert : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=77YJeK75oeUEPISODE PLAYLISTApple - https://music.apple.com/ca/playlist/the-pod-punk-cast-s1-e9/pl.u-AkAv0Mpt7d7X0kSpotify - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/29Mzagz85me78NL7zXZdVU?si=_wS-CuNZQbWbgcwMHo0YTQ&pi=VtC49p_TRT64b

"Hey ladies, what's up?""What kind of pick up line is that?" "What did he say?" "OMG, I can't believe it!" "Ew, look at his hair!" "Band guys are so lame!" "Why's he staring at us?" "Ew, what is he wearing?" "Ok... so can I call you?"We've said it once, and we'll say it again, when it comes to the big 4 of pop-punk, New Found Glory have their spot solidified. They also really got it right re-recording 'Hit or Miss', and we all know Scottie likes a good re-record if you're putting the same song on another album.So let me tip my glass to you, as we toast the night away to friends, and forget about tomorrow!Official Site : https://www.newfoundglory.com/Hit or Miss (video) : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qYoWZgY2HAkDressed to Kill (video) : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gz0qyYtcJb4&list=RDgz0qyYtcJb4&start_radio=1The Story So Far (2002 full dvd) : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=us8ZUjWG4g8Live in London (2004) : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8YjGK5oP7YE&list=RD8YjGK5oP7YE&start_radio=1EPISODE PLAYLISTApple - https://music.apple.com/ca/playlist/the-pod-punk-cast-s1-e8/pl.u-leyMol8txKxz1eSpotify - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4rvcYveSi0FjfESEr6fWuu?si=y7zzs2VxSPaJJHQX8OB4sA&pi=5tawPrVpQBygM

In this episode we enter the confessional booth.. "Bless me Father, for I have sinned.. I think tonight I'll take the long way"Dashboard Confessional was the first singer-songwriter that we connected with. 'The Swiss Army Romance' is an entire album so full of heart and classic sing-alongs, Chris Carrabba was dubbed 'The King Of Pain' for all the right reasons.The pastor is in, so gather around because church is in session.Official Site : https://dashboardconfessional.com/Screaming Infidelities (video) : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tuv_TB_XR2cMTV Unplugged : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lVkWnebHsAISwiss Army Bro-Mance (NFG split) : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dX1hwaUwGs0Chris Carrabba 2010 Interview : https://chorus.fm/features/interviews/chris-carrabba-of-dashboard-confessional/EPISODE PLAYLISTApple - https://music.apple.com/ca/playlist/the-pod-punk-cast-s1-e7/pl.u-AkAv0mGf7d7X0kSpotify - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3jaZ8dwu7Iu9B7z1hMlgyV?si=bZTQTWM2Tn2QKqqaNaZ40A&pi=C_dHK-LKTcSkY

What's the D-D-D-Dillio everyone?! In this episode we are wasting some time on MEST.We go back to the drawing board when Tony Lovato and the guys from South Chicago officially crashed the mainstream party.

What would you say is your most overplayed song, or album? For a lot of people, Bleed American by Jimmy Eat World might fall victim to that, but for all the right reasons. These songs need to be heard!We ask, can an album with song writing this good, with this much emotional honesty, really be overplayed? Maybe it deserves to be.Official Site : https://www.jimmyeatworld.com/Bleed American (video) : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DnTQkKd8Wx0The Middle (video) : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oKsxPW6i3pM&list=RDoKsxPW6i3pM&start_radio=1Sweetness (video) : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ROatPGGMvXg&list=RDROatPGGMvXg&start_radio=1A Praise Chorus (video) : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GCOO5ZlUfvU&list=RDGCOO5ZlUfvU&start_radio=1NME article : https://www.nme.com/news/music/jimmy-eat-world-interview-bleed-american-25-anniversary-tour-new-album-3928923Believe In What You Want DVD : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IyKhCevg_rsArby's Set Clip : https://www.youtube.com/shorts/8gGSNxt2gowRolling Stone's 50 Greatest Pop-Punk Albums : https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-lists/50-greatest-pop-punk-albums-122677/EPISODE PLAYLISTApple - https://music.apple.com/ca/playlist/the-pod-punk-cast-s1-e5/pl.u-YmbErmPFxmxodkSpotify - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1ke2ExujPv7M6kEiCDwPaO?si=eJ7IulaVRBORLbElvknh5g&pi=F99icph8QAi5q(apologies, Scottie's mic got a little interference around the end, please bear with us:)

This episode is for every kid who ever got picked last in gym class.. To every kid who never had a date to no school dance.. To everyone who's ever been called a freak (this is for you).Its another self-titled debut album by another set of brothers. Good Charlotte was the glue that connected As Night Falls together, the band you hear in the intro and outro of each episode. Lots of funny lyrics, but we love these Madden Brothers.

"How deep is YOUR love?!"When was the last time you body surfed, or were on stage at a show? That's the heavy topic when discussing an old favourite such as Goldfinger. This band has been a part of our lives for as long as we've been going to shows as a regular pastime. This album is still a go-to for both of us, and stands as one of our all time favourite self-titled debut releases.+ Karl makes an appearance Official Site : https://www.goldfingermusic.com/Here In Your Bedroom (video) : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OJITRDBEbp4Mable (video) : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=13qow-QCyuU&list=RD13qow-QCyuU&start_radio=1Warped Tour 1996 : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=26TcmNFNnwQHouse Of Blues 2004 : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hC_9l5_PaGw&t=50sDarrin Flipping Conan (@ 3min 30sec) : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MCFvQPjXhgcFree Me (video) *watch with caution* : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6fayPV5PN6UEPISODE PLAYLISTApple - https://music.apple.com/ca/playlist/pod-punk-cast-s1-e3/pl.u-PDbYXvZtk5kzYxSpotify - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2jArXUonSBo68nTUrvI44P?si=Atrikn0yQemvN__zUu2g1g&pi=QEahAWijShuSs

Welcome to the Lit Lounge! We take a dive into Lit's second studio album "A Place In The Sun". A true classic, but is it a pop-punk classic?
