Comeback Kid





Origin:  Winnipeg, Manitoba
Genre:  Punk / Metal / Hardcore
Recent Release:  Symptoms and Cures







Typically I am not a fan of punk music, but Comeback Kid is different because they blend Punk with Metal. If you listen to any of their songs you will immediately recognize the vocalist (assuming you listened to Sights & Sounds from one of my earlier posts). Anyway the lead singer is the same guy from Sights & Sounds; pretty cool. This band has a lot of good catchy tunes, although I'll admit it took me a few listens to get into them, mainly because of the Punk flair. But do not take that as a negative, Comeback Kid is a talented group, it just took me a bit longer to realize that.

Here are some songs you should check out, "Because Of All" which in my opinion is their best song, "Wake The Dead", "Magnet Pull", "Pull Back The Reins" (which has a wicked instrumental ending), and "Get Alone".

Their most recent album, Symptoms and Cures, by far their best work yet. It is easy to notice the maturing and evolution of their sound compared to previous albums.
