Latin For Truth lead the pop punk revolution, releasing an acoustic ep with free poetry book!

Think back ten years ago to 2002... Blink 182 had released 'Take Off Your Pants And Jacket', picking up awards from Nickelodeon, having lots of fun annoying 'real' punx and possibly the occasional conservative, worried mother, and presumably sleeping on beds made from dollar bills funded by their silly, sugary melodic songs.

New Found Glory meanwhile were getting ready to release 'Sticks And Stones', an album that would bring their 'funny' fat bassist, occasional good looks, dyed hair and zany antics into the main stream, where they would have a good time pogoing around stages on the back of songs with lyrics about girls and friends for several more albums.

Thankfully pop punk has evolved from this dark place and is now a genre where serious musicians, with actual ability, who are more than a haircut and a cheeky smile, can flourish and touch kids across the world with their healing, honest lyrics that come from the heart.

Latin For Truth already had a great, artsy name but they fell into the trap of being a 'faster' Four Year Strong until now. In a huge leap forward for them and the pop punk genre they're releasing an entire EP of acoustic songs!! Will this trend of pop punk bands recording acoustic songs continue? Hopefully!

And that's not even the best part! With the release is a book of poetry! For years I've thought pop punk lyrics were poetry to me and now maybe the rest of the world can see that too. Finally pop punk can be taken seriously, the way it's meant to be.
