Over the past few years we’ve seen somewhat of a re-emergence of the pop-punk that flooded the scene back in the early noughties. Unfortunately, the majority of bands are more throwaway fodder than anything worth more than 5 minutes of your time…luckily this quartet from Spain took me a little by surprise! And here they are on the verge of releasing their second full-length LP, One More Fight.

Daylight hail from the beautiful setting of Barcelona, admittedly not the first band of their kind to feature twins (remember Madina Lake? No, me neither...), it’s something that lends a little uniqueness to their craft in a genre crowded with quality bands such as golden oldies like New Found Glory and Zebrahead as well as the new breed like Neck Deep. But what about the music you say?

Well the first thing is that it hooked me straight away, it’s almost the norm nowadays to expect some sort of intro and I was glad that the opening track Anthem of the Broken plunged the vocals of twins Wojtek and Olek Burek straight down my ears. The song reminds me of old-school Goldfinger with it’s simple song structure and similar vocal style, the only difference being you can tell frontman Woitek has an accent; but that certainly doesn't detract from the music.

Second track Kickbacks is a typical pop punk track with it’s catchy hooks and addictive drumming from Victor Vera. A song that would fit perfectly on the soundtrack of Tony Hawks Pro Skater or a Punk-O-Rama compilation. Transporting me further back to my high school years is first single from the album Consequences, it makes me want to go back and dig out my skateboard and put my cap on backwards, with it’s soaring melody and a chorus that begs to be sung aloud - this has fan favourite written all over it.
