Find yourself wondering just how Comeback Kid will sound after they under went a vocalist change? Well to all you Comeback Kid fanatics you can say they have found a worthy successor to hold down their hardcore rants, their very own guitarist Andrew Nuefeld. Following their much-anticipated release Wake the Dead in 2005, Broadcasting is certain to still be able to attract their devoted fans and reel in a few more.

After two long years, the Canadian based hardcore band has crafted what will prove to be their most defining work and this is coming from a person that hardly listens to hardcore music. Since changing vocalist I think Comeback Kid were kind of stuck somewhere between either changing their sound or staying on the same course they have been on. Although for some bands it can either make or break them I think Comeback Kid have chosen to keep some of their sound while mixing it up a little. Their opening track “Defeated” has to be one of their strong songs on the record and it’s a great introduction to the record. Following after is the title-track “Broadcasting” which holds that same engaging chorus as “Defeated”. The rest of the album follows in almost the same footsteps but holds a few differences such as “Give’r (Reprise) which is a quick hardcore song that lets you in and then throws you out. One track that also stands out from the middle to the ending of the record is “Market Demands” because of its opening. However, no matter how softly you play it, Broadcasting will feel cranked up. The only negative comment that I have for this CD is that there is not one song that you’ll like in whole but you’ll like in parts. For fans who listen to The Banner, Bane and With Honor.
