The band's unique sound blends elements of punk, rock, and pop, creating a distinct and energetic sound that is sure to appeal to a wide range of music lovers.

The album opens with the upbeat and infectious "B.J.K.", a tribute to the titular tennis star that sets the tone for the rest of the record.
