Punchline – So Nice To Meet You
[Modern Short Stories]
6.5/10

Pennsylvania’s Punchline is back with their new EP So Nice To Meet You. The release has already been successful due to word of mouth, social networking, and their devoted fan base they have crafted since they formed in 1998. Was all the hype warranted though? The released starts off with “Universe” and while the beginning starts off a bit weak, the track begins to turn around at the first instance of the chorus. The vocals are still strong, but the instrumental work is a bit basic and lacking a wow factor to draw people in. It turns what could have been a great release into only a solid release with a batch of good but uninteresting songs. Punchline still has some life in them, they just need to focus and release a beast of a follow-up.
