Review

Grab your headphones because "Up" is Pop Evil's explosive fourth studio album, released on August 21, 2015. Produced by Adam Kasper, this record welds together heavy riffs with catchy hooks and introspective lyrics, solidifying their post-grunge dominance. The opener, "Footsteps," slams you right into gear, setting an epic tone. Tracks like "Core," "In Disarray," and "Take It All" balance adrenaline-pumping aggression with melodic finesse.

Leigh Kakaty’s emotional depth shines in the reflective pieces "If Only for Now" and "Ghost of Muskegon." Polished production, courtesy of Kasper, complements the band's tight musicianship. An acoustic version of "Footsteps" on the deluxe edition adds even more depth. "Up" climbed to number 25 on the US Billboard 200 and topped the US Independent Albums chart. With singles like "Footsteps," "Ways to Get High," and "Take It All" lighting up rock radio, "Up" is a killer addition to Pop Evil's arsenal, a must-listen for fans of alternative and post-grunge rock! - Ben
