[Rohan Kohli]

Hit the Lights (http://www.hitthelightsmusic.com) has posted a new song titled "Bodybag" on their pureVOLUME.com (http://www.purevolume.com/hitthelights) page. The band's new album, This is a Stick Up... Don't Make it a Murder, is due out on April 11th through Triple Crown Records.

[astereo]

[xearlynovemberx]

I'm diggin this. I love HTL, this album seems like its gonna b nice.

its going to be in my top 5 of this year for sure

[weezer283]

This Band is awesome hands down awesome dudes! i remember when they thought they would never sign.......but there to great to be unsign....They will be headlining warped in 2 yrs if they still have it

[Rohan Kohli]

Based off the 3 songs I have, this could be one of my favorite pop punk CDs...brings me back to the good ol' days of driving around with the windows down to NFG's Sticks and Stones.

[Kyner]

This is going to be the Ocean Avenue of last summer. Just driving around blasting some Hit The Lights goodness.

[scenesfromatony]

haha this song makes me laugh every time (nick, the phrase violently poppy comes to mind), but i love those dudes. (word on the street we have a first single in our midst)

[Gabe Gross]

formulaic

[fedhed7]

I like it.

perhaps better than cartel?

[Suchasucker]

This new song reminds me a lot of NFG's self-titled.

Which is definitely a good thing.

[HazeLitRise]

i like them
i just dont see what the big deal is
they kinda sound the same as all other pop punk music

[Brandn3w]

soooo good. their ep is one of my favorite eps of 2005, and i have a feeling this is going to be one of my favorite releases of the year.

[Scott Weber]

formulaic
hehe.

[AsheyLarryRXB]

i like them

yea i agree with you. its weird how alot of people on this site hate on bands for being generic and ripping off other bands, yet they praise other bands who are just as generic and guilty of ripping off people. im not saying hit the lights rips off people. i just dont understand how people think this is gonna be one of the top records of the year

[Criesofthepast7]

this is awesome. i cant wait to see them again.

[whitelines]

i love these guys.

[nottheonlyone23]

perhaps better than cartel?

i wouldn't hold my breath on that one.

[CalamityRecords]

sounds good tome.

[CHRISRIPPEDOUT]

the lyrics are funny because of how catchy the music is

[YourLatestVicti]

I'm a fan of this band but this song is kind of boring. Hopefully the rest of the cd is better.

[eclipse]

i love this song.

[C.R.U.X]

dan from Race the sun is also on this song

[bubonic311]

Aah poppy songs about killing people. This band will go far in 2006. They know all about a Dirty Girl Scout, too. Before you jump to Thought B, a Dirty Girl Scout is a shooter that tastes like a liquid thin mint cookie, only a cookie that gets you drunk.

[PaperclipAnemia]

formulaic
pretty goddamn good formula

[Mitch]

Holy fucking shit. Rohan, you're right in comparing them to NFG.

I. Need. This. Album.

And sure, they are "formulaic" and "generic", but they do it the right fucking way.

I seriously almost cried when I heard this song, I feel like a pussy. Something about poppunk done this way makes me act like a little bitch.

[reductiondesign]

This just shot up to "can't wait for this album."

[dekdog11]

its not bad, but the stuff on the ep is definitely better
we'll see when more songs get out

[Colin Farrell]

i say this a lot but....greatest song of all time

valentines day sucks

[TheRunAround]

Hit the Lights = quickly gaining ground for my most anticipated release

Save Your Breathe - best pop/punk song of the year next to "Take Cover: By acceptance

[Stubby0918]

Good song.

[Garett Press]

Awww, Hit the Lights

Cute song. If anyone knows about jumping around in underwear to NFG it's me.

[scenesfromatony]

perhaps better than cartel?

better songs, way better live...

[Jason Tate]

pretty goddamn good formula
He's kidding ... one of the songs on this album makes fun of Scott Weber's review of their EP.

[PaperclipAnemia]

He's kidding ... one of the songs on this album makes fun of Scott Weber's review of their EP.
haha. I see. Still though, its a pretty goddamn good formula.

[Mitch]

He's kidding ... one of the songs on this album makes fun of Scott Weber's review of their EP.

Tate, answer me now pleaseeee: Do you have this full album?

And no, I don't think I'm going to bug you for it if you do, I just need to know if you have it.

Oh, and here's another song:

[xearlynovemberx]

He's kidding ... one of the songs on this album makes fun of Scott Weber's review of their EP.

hahah are you serious?

[pin your wingsx]

all i have to say is wow!

[Rohan Kohli]

He's kidding ... one of the songs on this album makes fun of Scott Weber's review of their EP.

I think that's only part of it though, I don't think it was just Scott's review.

[C.R.U.X]

haha thats a clever idea, wonder howthey'll word it though

[tambo41187]

There is just nothing here, ive heard this same thing done over and over to death. I dont know its not bad, i just dont get the hype.

And NFG did this way better.

[Stubby0918]

Tate, answer me now pleaseeee: Do you have this full album?

And no, I don't think I'm going to bug you for it if you do, I just need to know if you have it.

Oh, and here's another song:

http://youtube.com/w/Hit-the-Lights-%22You-Are-the-Dishes-and-the-Dishes-are-Done%22?v=cwRRq5PLQWE&search=hit%20the%20lights
Hahahahaha

[Suchasucker]

If you are doubting these guys now, wait till you see them live.

They've got a TON of energy, and I've yet to see them play where they didn't have the crowd all hyped up by the end of their set.

[Steve Henderson]

This band sounds like a slightly better Valencia (ie derivative - do not understand the hype myself)

[fearthesloths]

i don't like simple plan, therefore i don't like the coked up version of the same band.

[braaaaaaaapp]

i don't like simple plan, therefore i don't like the coked up version of the same band.
Stop trying to sound cool by trying to compare these guys to Simple Plan in order to put them down. If you feel the need to voice your opinion, don't be a deuche about it.

[sweetforever]

It's catchy, will probably grow on me more and more with each listen. I'm anxious to hear more

[Bucc4019]

ehhh i think most of the songs on the EP are better then this one...

did they get a new drummer and not tell anyone? or maybe im seeing things?

[EastWestRock]

not to mention ... they also have the artwork for the new album up on the purevolume page.

[thisisrightnow]

i like them
i just dont see what the big deal is
they kinda sound the same as all other pop punk music

The fact is, yes.. they aren't doing anything unique, but for the type of music they are doing, they do it damn well. Their music can compliment their live show extremely well. It's just something you can't explain. And the guys are fucking nice as hell, too.

[MotionIsntMeaning]

i really liked their ep. this song is ok. but its definitely not song of the year.

[almandude]

That song really sounds like NFG, I like it.

[thenightlife]

if i could count the number of times ive listened to this song on two hands id have some weird fucking hands!

[muddysocks7]

i really like their ep... but when i went to the PV site to hear the new song, i was kinda meh about it, BUT then i checked out that youtube performance and got even more stoked! yeah i can't wait for this album :)

on a side note, good work triple crown... i remember when northstar broke up and people were like oh man... what is triple crown gonna do?!?! but they have shown they have a solid roster and Hit The Lights is only adding to it

[ilovebsb]

someone please rip this song and post it up here so we can have it and i know there's gotta be someone out there that has an advanced copy and i want it so bad. i really cant wait till april 11th :(

[scenesfromatony]

i got to hear the cd, and trust me it's worth the wait.

[Shatter_Glass]

i don't like simple plan, therefore i don't like the coked up version of the same band.

You are funny kid. no. seriously. that was clever. no. really.

[riotmute]

good stuff but probably the worst album title ever. anything else top it?

[NFG4ever]

All i'm gonna say is fucking right , this song rules. I LOVE the gang vocals

[NameTaken69]

april 11th is going to be a fun day, this cd, saves the day, and moneen all come out that day. wow

[Rohan Kohli]

april 11th is going to be a fun day, this cd, saves the day, and moneen all come out that day. wow

And Rookie of the Year :D

[NameTaken69]

And Rookie of the Year :D
shiiiiit, im going to have to start saving now

[OneFellSwoop]

thank god ive been waiting for some pop-punk to rock out too. hell yeah! im liking the ending even more. can't wait.

[enj0i29]

Bodybag was alright, I'm just hoping they can top "Until We Get Caught" with this full-length. Now THAT cd is catchy.

[OneFellSwoop]

You're gonna need a bodybag
I'll break bones you didn't know you had
When I'm done there will be nothing left of you
for your friends to hold on to
when they find you cold and blue tonight,
face down in a parking lot

Next time around
think about what you say before you run your mouth
'cause you're all alone and your nothin' without your friends now
You can tell the ? what you really said,
but I already know
You've got another thing coming if you think you're walking home

This time I'm waiting here for you
You've got nowhere to hide

You're gonna need a bodybag
I'll break bones you didn't know you had
When I'm done there will be nothing left of you
for your friends to hold on to
when they find you cold and blue tonight,
face down in a parking lot

Here's a question:
"What do you do when you're all alone and you
got nowhere to run to?" I swear I'll find you
And this is what I'll do
I'll take it slow (I'll take it slow)
Just to let you know that
we're not playing, you're not walking home

You're gonna need a bodybag
I'll break bones you didn't know you had
When I'm done there will be nothing left of you
for your friends to hold on to
when they find you cold and blue tonight,
face down in a parking lot

Did you think that you had something to prove?
Well you do, yeah
You do, yeah
Did you think that you had nothing to lose?
Well you do, so you think you're walking home

This time I'm waiting here for you
You've got nowhere to hide

You're gonna need a bodybag
I'll break bones you didn't know you had
When I'm done there will be nothing left of you
for your friends to hold on to
when they find you cold and blue tonight

(Next time around
think about what you say before you run your mouth
'cause you're all alone and your nothin' without your friends now)
You're gonna need a bodybag
I'll break bones you didn't know you had
When I'm done there will be nothing left of you
for your friends to hold on to
when they find you cold and blue,
face down in a parking lot

:D

[JohnnyG]

I remember when they released their first song "This Is A Stick Up" Did they get the name of the cd from that? Real good stuff. I bet this will be one of ym fav cds of 2006.

[CarlRyan]

sounds exactly what i thought it was going to....which is not a great thing

[AUGUSTinBETHANY]

yeah, I just ripped the new mp3, it's rad, I like it, someone was right, does sound like self titled NFG.. those dudes always want to make me jump when i listen to NFG, there's something about those dudes. esp there self titled i love the best, then sticks and stones, there newer one to me was a flop, don't like it as much, i hope they go back to there old ways, on there new cd

[andtheyslept]

sweeeeet

[LTJ182]

This shit is soo good and its soo real.
That song is about webbers reply. listen to the lyrics and read the review he did.

This entire record is rad as shit. They wrote this all themselves other than something like Panic that Squire should get credit for the whole thing.

These kids are soo cool, TIGHT AS SHIT LIVE...

The formula, sure its simple, but they do it good as fuck.

does sound like NFG meets SP, and last I checked those bands sold some shit..

wait till you hear them do the harmony at the end of 309 live, ITS SIIIICKKK


Most anticipated along with Over It, NFG, another simple plan record...

[lividman5k]

Sound good...

[Sureshot182]

hit the lights is amazing. they are easily going to release the best pop punk cd of this year, and one of the top ones overall. this song is pure sugary greatness. i love it :)

[ilovebsb]

THIS SONG IS SO DAM CATCHY! I CANT GET IT OUT'VE MY HEAD! and this is the kinda pop punk i've been looking for recently for a while. i'm so glad i can count on my boys. This is probley going to be the best pop punk record out there this year(even though someone already said this). i mean i finally heard the whole all time low cd and i thought it was such a let down and i'm hoping this song is just as catchy because i havent heard good pop punk like these guys in a while other than like race the sun or valencia but their not as formulatic and i happen to like this. it reminds of nfg/blink days and warped tour 2002 and that was one hell of a summer for me so i cant wait for the new std, moneen and rookie of the year. my paycheck is def. going to be shot to shit on cds and cmy sisters b-day is on that :(.

[caliac-brex]

I like those guys.;)

[Suchasucker]

did they get a new drummer and not tell anyone? or maybe im seeing things?
Yep, Ryan left. Nate is their new drummer.

[ffoeg]

The title of the cd is from the song "This is a stickup, Don't make it a murder", which was recorded for the cd actually, but didn't make the final cut. That wasn't the first song they released either, it was one of three songs they did demos of with Micah of Hawthorne, but the quality sucked.

[Decemberist]

this is definitely bringing back old catchy pop punk. like nfg as everyone has said.
i think pop punks been so watered down lately, and hopefully this will bring it back to standards.

[Under0Ath X]

gotta love that 14 year old girls are gonna be singing this one day...

[Bucc4019]

gotta love that 14 year old girls are gonna be singing this one day...
yea kinda like senses fail right now.

[Luckie St]

gotta love that 14 year old girls are gonna be singing this one day...

gotta love underoth merch in hot topic, and 14 year old girls creaming over them at warped. what?!?

[alifetmeaway]

this song is good.
i had to rip this

Do you have a copy of that song? I remember it was like the first song they posted on their purevolume.

[pretty_in_punk3]

less than a month until this release! i'm excited...
