Review

Chunk No, Captain Chunk!'s debut sonic rollercoaster, "Something For Nothing," burst onto the scene in 2011, skillfully smashing together metalcore’s punch-in-the-face intensity with the sugary hooks of pop-punk. Yeah, it’s like they dropped a pop-punk cupcake into a metalcore blender. The wizard behind the curtain, lead vocalist Bertrand Poncet, didn't just sing – he played producer magic card with a self-taught know-how thanks to the majestic art of online tutorials and a trusty mixing guidebook.

If you’re looking for anthems, this album doesn't disappoint. Tracks like "Born for Adversity" and "In Friends We Trust" will have you questioning why you’re not throwing furniture around while smiling from ear to ear. And just when you think they peaked with the original release, they pull a fast one on you by re-releasing it with a new tracklist and a previously Japanese-only treat called "Make Them Believe." Sure, critics had their lukewarm takes, but the fans? They lapped it up like a cat with a bowl of cream, cementing the band's dual-genre acrobatics. In short, "Something For Nothing" is a wild ride worth the fare. - Dave
