HIGH TENSION WIRES - Midnight Cashier (Dirtnap)
 High Tension Wires is an all-star punk rock line up hailing from Texas. Featuring Mike Weib (Riverboat Gamblers), Mark Ryan (Marked Men), Chris Pulliam (The Reds), and Mike Thorneberry (Marked Men.) This foursome puts out a sophomore effort that combines the sounds of their primary bands into one kick ass record. Midnight Cashier is a bit of a weirder and more diverse album than their first record titled Take A Message, but HTW still sticks close to their raw and punchy sound. Even though it isn't by any means a bad thing, this band sticks a little too close to the sound of the Marked Men (understandably so) and makes me wish they'd branch out just a bit further. Nonetheless, this record hasn't left my stereo in weeks and it had me singing along after the first listen. Get on this before the summer's over. - All Ages Dave
