#65. Craig's Brother
Homecoming

Release Date: June 9, 1998

In the summer of '98, I was at the merch tent at Cornerstone Festival in Bushnell, Illinois. This would be where my friends and I would spend way too much money on anything Tooth & Nail Records deemed worthy for our teenage ears. One must-have we got ever year was T&N's annual compilation CD, Songs from the Penalty Box. I believe that was the first time we had heard of Craig's Brother. Their record, Homecoming, was interesting in its lyrical content, which was shrouded in sweet delivery. The vocals were akin to NoFX and Lagwagon, which were bands we were getting into at the time also. Homecoming seemed to have substance that maybe our young minds were struggling to completely comprehend at the first several listens, but I believe it helped us understand the next level of heartache, loss, disappointing others and disappointing yourself. I recall listening to the last track, "Potential," and fearing that would end up being my anthem. I could speak for countless paragraphs on how this album caused me to question myself and the role I play in life as it pertains to others and myself. This album challenged me and pushed me. I know this band didn't claim to be a "Christian" band, but it pushed me to love and respect others by wondering what I look like through their eyes. The songwriting is superb and the guitars still blow me away. These guys killed it, and since I never had the pleasure to see them live, rocking out in my car will have to do. This may be a perfect punk record.
