RecommendEdmonton punk icons Choke have paid ten years worth of dues, mostly on the road, where they have earned a reputation for intense shows. While the pop-punk bug that infected us in the last decade rears its ugly head here, this is smart and self-aware punk. This, their sixth record, bristles with barely controlled-energy "Miss this distance", quirky chord progressions ("tone deaf conversations") and nerdy Canadian humor "It's not that I don't want to talk, it's just that it's freezing in this phone booth"). This is not original, but confident and a slight cut above other bands in the genre who seem to be mailing in what they think will sell and be cool.
