Late Nite Wars - Massachusetts Pop Punk

We just put up a brand new unreleased song as well as some shows with Fireworks. Title Fight, Have Heart, and Polar Bear Club.

punknews.org recently reviewed our ep and said:

"Except for the purposely erroneous spelling error in their name, Late Nite Wars actually encompass everything right about the current trend of hardcore kids playing pop-punk. There's no overwrought lyrics here; no horror movie growls; no keyboards (save for a barely audible organ on closer "The Big Hurt"); no stupid, stupid mosh parts -- just talented songwriting, plenty of double-time moments, tasteful gang vocals, great structure and super fun, energetic pop-punk.

Late Nite Wars is the best pop-punk debut EP I've heard since Transit and the Humanoids dropped bombs on us in 2007. With the Merrimack Valley quintet having already recorded some new material, I'm damn excited to hear what's next -- besides that one pretty awesome new song on their MySpace page, I guess."

hmm. i'm thinking i'll check this band out. saw the guy on the real world and then saw this thread. and there's some good feedback. so i'm thinking it'll be worth it.

I dont think there are ticket sales for it, assuming you just show up and pay for entrance at the door.
I don't know much myself about the dates, so I'll try to find some more info out and let you know.

11/29 @ RAD with Such Gold and 11/22 @ the Waterfront Tavern with Such Gold and like every good band in Massachusetts...I will be there. tbh I don't even listen to you guys, but I've seen you 3 times already because you always play with awesome bands. I have enjoyed your sets though, I will have to pick up the CD at some point.
