Patent Pending – Riot Hearts Rebellion

Apparently Patent Pending has been a band since 2001.  I’ve never heard of them until I came across a tweet from blogger Avery at ALotOnMyMind.  He has a list of some alternative music she listens to and Patent Pending was new to me so I checked them out on Spotify.

Riot Hearts Rebellion sounds like if OG Fall Out Boy or All American Rejects said more bad words and had Instagram.  Not that any of this is bad but I had lots of Green Day rebellion feels.  Wikipedia notes that this 2015 release was done via social media.

While the songs were upbeat and catchy, I could see myself humming sage advise like”

Naked pictures sound like fun
Until you break up and they make their way to everyone
And all of the creepers
Crankin’ it, spankin’ it, passin’ ’em on,
Postin’ it, showin’ it, blowin’ ’em up.
Don’t take those pictures like you do
Of you in your birthday suit.
You in your birthday suit.

It wasn’t on constant loop.  I gave it one good run. New music is new music.
