Heralds of the underground, THE MEASURE [SA] have laid it all on the line here in their second full-length "Notes," wherein they continue their tradition of Left Coast-inspired pop-punk that leaves no room for metaphor or horseplay. They play at two speeds: fast and faster. Is the buzz in the guitars or the mix? Rising above the fray, Lauren and Fid's vocals weave around each other with a cutting cross-examination of self, society, and scene. In the context of a band's life, "Notes" would be filed under "dark sophomore release" and "greatest leap forward in confidence and songwriting."
