Jank, the pop punk band from Philadelphia, scored a hit with their first EP, “Awkward Pop Songs”, and quickly followed up with an equally good if not better second record, “Versace Summer”. With a combination of jazz and surf rock, Jank crafts tales of everything from losing a bicycle and hoping it’s happy to the Grim Reefer, a nod to the paranoia involved with smoking weed. “If Awkward Pop Songs was Janks joke-cracking icebreaker, then Versace Summer is your fourth time hanging out with them, the point where things start to get less funny and more serious.” With it, they give listeners a sense of optimistic nihilism, creating sad songs about sad things in a way that allows fans to laugh a little at being sad. The album is full of humour always, and a crippling ability to relate to the ever so angsty teens .
