Kids for America

Motion City Soundtrack

Gritty, unpolished midwestern emo with nascent Moog synthesizers. A jittery, lo-fi snapshot of suburban neurosis and power-pop hooks.

2000 · Not On Label (Motion City Soundtrack Self-released)

Find on Amazon

A restless, caffeine-fueled exploration of suburban anxiety and youthful longing.

Moments Worth Listening For

The sudden shift from mid-tempo reflection to double-time punk energy in Intersection.
The way the vocals strain and crack slightly during the more vulnerable bridge of 1000 Paper Cranes.
