In the vast ocean of indie punk, where countless bands try to make a splash, Atlanta-based outfit The Carolyn has been carving out their own lane.
With their upcoming release, “Harmful History,” they continue their quest to provide the perfect soundtrack for rain-soaked highway drives.
It’s a familiar territory for the band, but also a glimpse into their future endeavors. Brace yourself, dear listeners, for The Carolyn is about to take you on a bumpy, yet exhilarating ride.
If you’ve spent your formative years jamming to the likes of melodic punk bands from the late 90s and early 2000s, then fear not, for The Carolyn will welcome you with open arms. But wait, there’s more! Prepare to be delightfully caught off guard as they embrace poppy hooks and unorthodox song structures, wasting no time in the process. In case you need evidence, just take a detour through their previous full-length albums, “Rhythm of My Own Decay” (59 X Records/Gunner Records) and “This Will Begin To Make Things Right” (59 X Records). These musical journeys are adorned with catchy choruses, lyrical musings on sleep deprivation, obscure pop culture references, and, of course, a healthy dose of existential crises.
But wait, there’s even more good news for The Carolyn enthusiasts! The band will grace the stages across the land throughout 2023, including coveted appearances at SXSW. And if you happen to reside across the pond, fear not, for they will make a triumphant return to Europe to support the release of “Harmful History.” It’s a globetrotting adventure that promises to leave you breathless and craving for more.
So buckle up, folks, as The Carolyn revs up their engines and gears up for another exhilarating musical expedition. Rain-soaked highways, punky melodies, and a touch of wry humor await those who dare to join them on this wild ride.
