A good song has no stylistic boundaries, and the few who have the ability to write such a song will separate themselves in any genre. Such is the case with Songwriter Tim McDonald of Broken Poets. McDonald combines personal influence with song writing that is both intelligent and visceral at once.
From power pop anthems, to guitar driven rock ballads, Reincarnation, is a record that stands strong from beginning to end. If you're a boomer, this band will remind you of the days when every song on the record was good. Bottom line, for any age group looking for a great new modern rock record, Reincarnation, from Broken Poets, is a must have.
