Pennywise make their full-album Patreon debut with a bang, and honestly, I enjoyed this way more than I expected. Full Circle is one of the most high-octane albums I’ve reviewed—and three seconds into each track, I began bobbing my head involuntarily.
Pennywise have an uncanny ability to make fast, aggressive punk music feel so inviting, and there’s something remarkably trustworthy about that. You can settle into this record with zero hesitation. It's an effortlessly-comfortable listen.
There’s also some surprisingly-clever bass presence throughout the album. Even during the full-bore moments, Randy finds the tastiest ways to cut through the mix. He's never just "surviving" the mix, but shining because of it. If albums had personalities, Full Circle would be that friend that peels into your driveway, smiling, and says “no time to explain—get in.”
