Hopefully, now that this album is more widely available thanks to Cargo picking it up for distribution, this band will get the recognition they deserve.

Go National is the side-project of hardcore legend Kevin Seconds, who has led his band 7 Seconds for two decades now. Go National's music is NOT hardcore, so if it needs to be hard and fast or angry for you to enjoy it, don't waste your time here. But if you like loud, melodic and unpretentious pop music, check out what you've been missing, and tell yr friends!

Go National sounds like a slightly heavier, less intellectual Posies, maybe. Or a west coast Noise Addict. Or kinda like a weird test-tube mating of Kurt Cobain and Pat Dinizio. Or maybe Weezer with a WAY better songwriter. Sometimes they sound kinda like Cheap Trick. Sometimes they sound like the Breeders. But they rock constantly.

Go National also has a single available featuring a better recording (IMO) of this album's "Indyanna" and an amazingly brilliant song called "A Weekly Thing" that didn't make it to their full-length. Buy both!

Even better than Go National is Kevin Seconds' solo stuff... namely his album Stoudamire, a perfect pop album stylistically somewhere between Elliott Smith and Grandpaw Would-era Ben Lee. Beautiful and smart 4-track bedroom pop and one of the most criminally overlooked albums of the last five years.

FYI, Kevin also made a fine pop album with a band he called 5"10 called Reggie Reggie Emily.

Well, what are you waiting for?...
