I like pop punk. I especially like edgy pop punk with gruff vocals, but this is fucking ridiculous (and also really awesome). Just imagine if Dillinger Four was actually fronted by a pirate. A pirate with the wooden leg, eye patch, cutlass, bicorne hat, and a shitload of punk rock tattoos. That’s kinda how I would describe Off With Their Heads to a casual listener. Anthemic sing-a-long pirate punk rock. Not that the band sings about walking the plank or anything like that…

Their new No Idea full length is called From The Bottom and contains twelve amazingly addictive and rough-but-catchy-as-fuck pop punk gems. The Minneapolis quartet is in good company with the likes of The Lawrence Arms, Banner Pilot, Chinese Telephones, etc… just so you know what you’re getting yourself into. So before you listen to the song below and then go buy this album, just realize that From The Bottom sounds exactly like what you probably think it sounds like except way better. Way!
