American punk rock band “Set Your Goals” was formed in 2004 and hails forth from the San Francisco Bay Area. The band currently consists of vocalists Matt Wilson and Jordan Brown, Audelio Flores Jr and Daniel Coddaire on guitars, Joe Saucedo on the bass and Michael Ambrose on the drums.
Although they exist for over more than 5 years, this last June has known the release of their second album called “this will be the death of us”. So on this one they have something to prove against the rest of the punk scene witch is heavily saturated at the moment.
Although I’m not really into punk, the album is catchy from the start till the end and has lots of variation on it and no 2 songs sound the same. But it isn’t until track number 7 when guest vocalist Hayley Williams of Paramore joins in for a piece of hip-hop. This is a really nice and safe album for people who are not into the genre but want to give it a try.
