Hit The Lights

So my first review is about a band called Hit The Lights. They are a Pop-punk/rock band from Lima, Ohio. They formed in 2003 and have been active ever since. They have released two full-length studio album and three EPs.
Their debut album, "This Is A Murder...Don't Make It A Stickup," was a huge success and earned them a loyal fanbase and touring non-stop, with bands such as New Found Glory and Boys Like Girls. They faced issues when original lead singer Colin Ross decided he wanted to leave the band. They faced difficulty in finding a new singer, but eventually turned to guitarist Nick Thompson to do the vocals, which turned out being a huge success. Then, on July 8, 2008, they came out with their sophmore effort, "Skip School, Start Fights," which was an even bigger achievement that their debut album. They have been touring ever since the release of that album.
Hit The Lights infuses hardcore drums with complicated melodies that make the songs sound wholesome and complete. Many fans were diappointed with the album when it was released, because it was so different from their first album, but they changed singers, so whaddaya expect? Their songs are catchy tunes that will easily get stuck in your head, with simple lyrics and awesome beats.
I recommend the songs "Drop The Girl," from "Skip School, Start Fights", which starts out with a little electronica-pop action, then comes in with the band just jammin', which is what Hit The Lights does best. I also recommend "Bodybag," from "This Is A Murder...Don't Make It A Stickup." It's simple yet complex melody and rhythm keep you wanting more from them. Which is exactly what HTL wants to give you: more. They won't stop touring and recording until you're satisfied.
