Spent my time on creating something True!

For those who have lived in Punk, Skatepunk-, Softcore area behind the moon: Millencolin is an institution. How can you call it otherwise? After 20 years and several LPs, weltgetoure and inspiration for their own Vans shoes are the masters now in their 40s. Having celebrated 7 years ago on the last, rather moderate album "Machine 15" in "Brand New Game" that the style has changed - what was also clearly heard - and was the old Millencolin nostalgics clear there will be no enter "Fazil's Friend" more was the question concerning the new album great: How should it continue?

The answer comes with force from the speakers: The opener "Egocentric Man" takes tidy driving on, looks much more punk than the songs of the last album and performs with a lot of energy in the new album "True Brew" a. And the positive is, it does not stop. 13 dynamic, refreshing and, I think, punky songs Millencolin-style fun and humor. Not only the opener is convincing, especially the ingenious titleholder "True Brew", the first single "Sense and sensibility" and other songs, preceded "Something I would die for", go from simply. That here different reviewers designate various favorite songs, speaks for the quality of this disc is definitely recommended for Millencolin-new discoverers!

Is "True Brew" an evolution? Rather not. That would sound different. It is also not completely Back to the Roots. It's just a successful Millencolin album of old men who know what they want, and show that they have not fucking still got it! Because sings Nikola the title track "Spent my time on creating something True!", It is for me exactly. No experiments, no Gekünstel but something honest. And, I repeat, is fun and reminds me why I hear for 20 years Millencolin.

Clear 5 stars for Millencolin action!
