Punchline’s “Friend From The Future” is a skillful blend of alternative pop, emo-rock, and angular indie in the vein of At The Drive-In. A charismatic set of vocals stretch out over the track as a thick, ropy bass line and splashy drums unite to make a fulfilling backdrop. The guitar riffs are doing double duty here as they both add to the overall arrangement and give the vocals a secondary/backing element. Friend From The Future is perfectly polished, a cut that showcases that all parts of Punchline can work together as well as showcase a tremendous ability on their own. Video’s below.
