Amazon.caTheir name might be tailor-made to bait sniffy hardcore purists, but it's the music on Leaving Through the Window--the debut full-length from So-Cal emo-popsters Something Corporate--that should really divide the punk kids eager for the latest release stamped with the Drive-Thru insignia. Touting influences like Billy Joel and Elton John alongside more traditional touchstones like New Found Glory and Jimmy Eat World and featuring, in the shape of Andrew McMahon, a lead singer more keen on pulling up a piano stool and playing an elegant recital than reeling across the stage with mike clutched in bloody fist, Something Corporate truly are the face of easy-listening emo.Is this a bad thing? Occasionally. They tend to rely a little too much on orchestral strings when they're trying to milk every last drop of emotion out of tracks like "Cavanaugh Park", and "Punk Rock Princess" is about as soppy as this sort of music gets. But the embittered "If You See Jordan"--a song about a high-school bully that can't grow up when the prom's been and gone--and the determinedly anti-macho "Drunk Girl" offer a pretty sweet antidote to brainless frat-rock punk. Besides, Something Corporate are bucking the tedious trend of three-chord moshpit conformity and we should certainly applaud that when we see it. --Louis PattisonProduct DescriptionSomething Corporate
