Skate punk legend Jim Lindberg (Pennywise) is making his long awaited return to his side project The Black Pacific, after nearly an entire decade and a half of silence.
The album kicks off with the hyper-kinetic opening track and lead-off single, “I Think I’m Paranoid.” Lindberg says of the track, “I’ve had this song for a while now and it was about all the senseless violence, terrorism, government conspiracies and divisiveness that make you want to move to a desert island somewhere, but now I’ve updated it to include hate groups, militias and global pandemics, so it’s basically just a panic attack with distorted guitars at 120 Beats Per Minute.”
The rest of the album doesn’t let up from there with tracks like “No Fun” about sociopath dictators around the world inflicting chaos and death on innocent civilians, and the relentlessly pounding “Here We Come” about the encroaching threat of A.I. taking all our jobs and eventually replacing us completely.
The long awaited follow up to their first album, HERE COMES OUR WAVE is a powerful, thought provoking album from the Black Pacific that is at the same time resigned to our fate as a highly flawed planet, but hopeful that the bonds of love and respect for nature can hopefully guide us through stormiest of seas.
