The Headliners - Too Young To Fall In Love(2012) - Review



Tracklist :

1 - Right place / Wrong time
2 - So bored by now
3 - Too young to fall in love
4 - The city is dead(Intro)
5 - The city is dead
6 - Score in a rig
7 - We are the Headliners
8 - Don't cross the line
9 - In the city
10 - The kids just wanna dance (Fast Cars cover)
11 - The way I behave

The 3rd release, which Ben from UVPR sent me for reviewing, is the best in my opinion. The Headliners are from Nantes and fuckin hell this one is absolutely great. "Too Young To Fall To Fall In Love" is not a classic oi album as well, many poppy and melodic parts, sometimes going into poppunk realms.

Don´t know how to find the right words  for the sound of this band,but it remembers me of Perkele, Gimp Fist with a pinch of  the unfortunately splitted Vanilla Muffins. But it´s too easy to compare the guys with other bands, they got their own style and sound which got me in the first seconds.The lyrics are full of great messages, like in "Don´t cross the line", which is one of the best songs i heard in the last 5 or 10 years. You'll soon sort out it's all fucked-up Routine, will shortly disrupt. Just be a man at least one day in yer low-down life. Just pull the trigger and please do not think fuckin twice.

This one is a must must must buy, for all of you, thats a command, not an option. It would be a shame if this band will be unheared by the scene. So please support them, you won´t have any regret.
