Thumper Punk brings you the EP debut of spirit-filled blue collar punk rock band A Common Goal. The EP is called For God and Country, and that pretty much describes the lyrical content of the EP. There is no doubt that these guys are Christian, but more on the side of “I’m not gonna judge, let’s work this out together” than the “finger in your face, turn or burn” side that so many Christian bands have taken in the past. The vocals are the gruff vocal style that some punks love and others hate. I like that style myself, especially since they are not so rough that it sounds like the guy needs to clear his throat all the time. The punk is a bit above mid-paced range, but never getting to the near speed-metal level of some bands. It’s a nice pace if you ask me. They have a full length coming soon, but until then, check out this 5 song ep (the physical CD is already sold out – so the only option now is BandCamp).
