Cartel – where did it all go wrong?

I used to flippin’ well love Cartel. ‘Chroma’ is one of my favourite pop-punk records; Will’s vocals and lyrics just really strike a chord. But then somehow they disappeared up their own arse and after the disasterous ‘band in a bubble’ thing that MTV did, they wrote an abomination of an album (S/T) which bombed.

The band are back with a new album which is OK, but the first single is pretty good and well worth a listen. Video below. I’d be interested to hear what people think of the band and how they’ve turned out over the years…
