 Pinhead Gunpowder - Compulsive Disclosure: Silent Uproar
Despite having a guitarist/vocalist who spends most of his time in one of punk's largest acts of the last decade (Billie Joe/Green Day), Pinhead Gunpowder is relatively unknown.
So, a good part of Pinhead Gunpowder's sound is early 90's Cali-pop punk.
For what Pinhead Gunpowder is - a band that was put together in 1991 to have fun away from their own, more demanding bands - this is a worthwhile listen, and yeah, it's better than the Transplants.

From the first second of the catchy 'Life During Wartime' to the beatiful lyrics of 'Song of my Returning' to the emotional story of 'Brother,' this album fills all of your musical needs in a lean 23 and a half minutes.

 Pinhead Gunpowder: Compulsive Disclosure Aversion.com Review
There are some underground types who claim that once a band makes it big and finds an audience, its muse shuts up and it loses that special something that made it so appealing when its members were making noise in the basement in between crappy part-time jobs.
With Armstrong dominating the microphone duties, Pinhead Gunpowder sounds a lot like Green Day if it traded some of its melodies for rough-around-the-edges punk rock.
In fact, Pinhead Gunpowder could be the ultimate pop-punk act, even if it weren?t for its star-studded lineup, as Compulsive Disclosure takes the melodies that turn us on and wraps it up in all the grime, grit and wonderfully ear-wrecking noise of punk rock proper.

 Splendid Magazine reviews Pinhead Gunpowder: Compulsive Disclosure
In this case, Pinhead Gunpowder seem to be banking on the loyalty of their old fans rather than aiming to make new ones.
Not one of these nine songs made any impression on me. There were no clever lyrics, no hooks, no killer breaks or solos.
There's a lot to be said for speedy, muscular punk, but there's a lot more to be said for imbuing those brief songs with a little personality.

Obviously this is not a bad thing as Green Day is an incredible band that has set the tone for all the wannabe pop-punkers out there, but Pinhead Gunpowder is its own entity.
If you ignore the fact that this CD sounds like someone else made it, it is easy to commend these guys for being damn good musicians.
