Dustn's Best of 2017, #12: Bad Cop / Bad Cop - 'Warriors'

My two favorite songs on Bad Cop/Bad Cop's debut album, Not Sorry, were "Like, Seriously?" and "Support." I enjoyed the album as a whole, but those two stood out in particular as really powerful and moving. I had high hopes that their second album would have more songs like those two, and holy crap did Bad Cop/Bad Cop fulfill on that secret wish of mine.

Warriors is straight up fire. The sickeningly sweet harmonies of old have thankfully stayed, but the band's lyrics are sharper, resulting in a much more vicious (well, as vicious as pop punk can get) album. It's angry, it's catchy, it's political, it's personal, and it's SO good. Warriors is exactly the type of punk album that 2017 needed. Or at the very least, it's the type of punk album that I needed in 2017.
