🎧 “Waste of Time”
June 9, 1998: Craig’s Brother released Homecoming via Tooth & Nail Records — a classic-sounding ‘90s melodic hardcore album. Tight, heartfelt, and packed with hooks — a record that deserved way more love.
🎧 “Who Am I?”
1999

🎧 “I Don’t Want to Grow Up”
2008
June 9, 2008: The Cute Lepers released the single Terminal Boredom — a perfect blast of power pop punk, channeling ‘77 vibes with sharp melodies and infectious energy. A modern classic in the genre.
2009
June 9, 2009: The Leftovers released Eager to Please — a bright, catchy slice of power pop punk loaded with hooks and good vibes. Pure fun from start to finish.
🎧 “Telephone Operator”
2015
