Danger Cat

Where I'll Be (Newform Label)

On their debut full length album -- a relatively short listen at 10 songs in under half an hour -- Winnipeg pop punkers Danger Cat blast out their thoughts and feelings like it was 1990 all over again. Honestly, this is one lifeless genre that has been on running on acrid fumes for what seems like at least a couple of decades. Who knew that so-called punk (or angry, or hard-"fill in the blank") rock would have a shelf life as long as it has done?

The trio pounds and screams well, with vocalist Keith Dueck playing the Mr. Yelling Yellerson role to the absolute hilt. His voice is an acquired taste as they say, while the music (including Dueck on guitar) rocks pretty hard, even though they are kicking out some fairly paint by numbers jams alongside some relatable melodies.
