Emotionally intense pop-punk with blazing guitars and forceful rhythms. Their name definitely doesn't suggest their status as a powerful musical entity.
If you have never heard of New York's Garden Variety, you have missed one of the front-runners in the team of power punk bands that have made us all jump around in our rooms and drive too fast down the interstate. Garden Variety can be compared to Braid, Christie Front Drive, or Jawbreaker. Luckily, Garden Variety does their own thing with great songwriting and an angst-driven pop-punk approach that makes you finally smile at the end of a horrible day.
