46 SHORT - TRUTH DENIED

Bringing it all back to basics is what Southern California's 46 Short have in mind with their latest album. Here you will find 13 tracks of fast punk rock reminiscent of old-school punk-rock acts. The lyrics are rich with powerful words pertaining to our doomed way of life in America (e.g., "Damned Nation"). All 13 tracks pretty much sound the same-but I guess it's what I should expect from a band like this. However, there's no doubt that fans of the retro sound will fall in love with this album. Well done, boys!
