Nearly a decade after the release of their classic debut United By Fate, Rival Schools have finally returned from their hiatus to deliver their long-awaited follow-up, Pedals, available March 8th on Photo Finish/Atlantic Records. The album is an immensely satisfying second dose of what made the band so cherished when they first hit the scene, and serves a reminder of their influence on so many young bands active today.
Pedals tracks like "Choose Your Adventure" and "Shot After Shot" show the group's hard-hitting mode, packed with crunchy guitars, propulsive grooves and shout-along vocals. On the other end of the spectrum, "69 Guns" features Rival Schools' more expansive side and has one of their most soaring choruses yet.
