 | | Popping Millencolin's Pennybridge Pioneers into the stereo, it's almost impossible not to envision some old-timer punk rocker, bent over with age, stroking his long, spindly beard, moaning about how in his day music was so much meaner, louder and, overall more punk, in his day. |
 | | It's not that any track on this album is particularly bad, nor even annoyingly cloy, but with the band's milquetoast arrangements and themes, it obviously was gunning for the safety of the punk rock middle ground, and scoring a direct hit in the process. |
 | | Oddly, the most striking track on Pennybridge Pioneers is its closing number, "The Ballad," an acoustic number chronicling the difficulties of youthful rejection. |
