Above The Underground are pop punk quartet hailing from Chester, England. Their sound is pretty similar to Blink 182 & The Offspring. I had a nice time listening to the cd. There are not only rockers but also ballads ('Shine': sounds really as if breaking into tears, a very emotional song) and half ballads ('Cheer up')...
There are no fillers, no bad songs and there is enough creativity to keep it interesting! So, give them a chance.
I'm just a bit afraid that there are already so much similar fishes in this big sea, so it's up to the fans, the management, the band... & you to promote this band!
I liked it, now it's your turn!
Sonder is a self-release, which can be purchased digitally from their band camp: http://abovetheundergrounduk.bandcamp.com/
