For me, one of the best feelings on this planet is the excitement that comes with hearing a debut album that blows me away. It was that feeling that I experienced recently when I first heard My Minor Arcana by the Orlando, FL punk band Jernigan. With a mix of songs that remind me of Face To Face and early Jawbreaker and vocals that sound like Billie Joe Armstrong in his younger days, Jernigan has a style of punk rock that gives me goosebumps.
The band, which features members of How Dare You and As Friends Rust, have posted My Minor Arcana on their bandcamp page as a pay-what-you-want download. Check out the full album stream below to hear the tunes right here.
