The first track \u201cBecause I Can\u201d reminded me of Comeback Kid. That carried on a bit through \u201cSeeing Blue\u201d and \u201cKick and Drag.\u201d I thought \u201cOh God, more hardcore.\u201d I don\u2019t know much about the Yukon, but these guys are making me start to think they\u2019re from Ireland, with \u201cAll my Songs\u201d giving off that upbeat pub-style shenanigan feel. These dudes are almost a hardcore band, but they spice it up just enough to confuse the public into generalizing them as a rock group. I was really sold when I heard \u201cBreed,\u201d which tricked my mind into thinking I was in a 90s movie, with the song being a Nirvana cover and all. <em>F.A.B<\/em>. is their second album, and it makes me want to check out their first.
