Track samples: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005X1NDZA/ref=dm_sp_alb?ie=UTF8&qid=1318998278&sr=8-1 The Mighty Mighty Bosstones brand new album The Magic of Youth comes out December 6th and Amazon has previews of all the tracks. That’s right I’m a big enough fan boy to post news about track samples. So far the first three songs catch most of my attention, getting a real Pay Attention/Let’s Face It vibe from all of these samples. Definitely a different but logical direction from their last album Pin Points & Gin Joints (2009), less classic third-wave ska influenced, more catchy pop-punk choruses with awesome horn lines. I know people have been back and forth about the album artwork, but I love it! Especially that goofy turtle with the sunglasses. And a cartoon Paul Pierce? I can dig it.
