We Are Moving On Forward is 11 minutes of punk pop madness. It rocks hard and fast, yet is catchy and infectious enough that you’ll be humming it as you run through the streets in Converse sneakers.

After hearing Propeller21’s outstanding track on We Are The Punx in Korea, I made it my it my mission to locate more tunes from these guys. I scored this EP, and it has not left my player since.

The first track on the album, “Dirty (Pop is Dead),” is a crunchy, Weezer-esque poppy number, which is almost laid back. If “Dirty (Pop is Dead),” was laid back, the second track, “ThreeBluePig” is anything but. It’s a track tailor-made for skateboarding, riding a bike, or running through a city. Fast and furious, it also includes the best chorus on an album…ever!

Lose some weight and wake up fat ass
I will bust your head
tell mom to suck your cock, fat ass
I will bust your head

I mean “I will bust your head?” How can you not dig that? It’s worth mentioning that all of the songs are sung in English, though without the lyrics sheet, you’d be hard pressed to know what is being said.

The other two tracks on the album (”Last,” and “Someday,”) are more fast, in your face anthemic punk, but the surprising thing about this is, for as fast as it is, the songs are extremely melodic. Each of the tunes on this album (including the piano outro after “Someday”) are ladden with pop hooks.

This album is outstanding, and I am looking forward to hearing more from these guys.
