True Sounds of Liberty date back to 1978 and the birth of punk rock/hardcore in Los Angeles.Playing with the fury of their hardcore contemporaries but with a goth/death rock image andpoppier melodies, T.S.O.L. Quickly set themselves apart from the pack and made it a missionto continually explore new sounds and styles. On this, their 12th long-player, the band hascombined a handful of recent singles alongside all-new recordings helmed by Paul Roesslerat Kitten Robot Studio. Fronted by singer Jack Grisham alongside guitarist Ron Emory andbassist Mike Roche (all from the band’s first line-up), they are joined by longtime keyboardistGreg Kuehn and Antonio Hernandez on drums. New punk anthems such as “Low-Low-Low,”“Never Go Home” and “The Way You Groove” are paired with covers of “The Rhythm ofCruelty” (Magazine), “1 Thing” (Amerie), “Sweet Transvestite” (yes, that one, featuring CircleJerk Keith Morris as Brad) and a reasonably straight-forward reading of “What a WonderfulWorld.” Punk Rock means giving the high sign to the rules, and this is most definitely punk rock.
