You might have caught a glimpse of these youngsters at the Crouching Fish Hidden Finger Tour with Goldfinger and Reel Big Fish. "Hurry Up And Wait" is the band's first full length album. Take a look at the artwork and you already get a good idea of what this band's about: careless and melodic punk rock. Riddlin' Kids sound a hell of a lot like labelmates the Offspring, especially vocal-wise. I'm probably the only reviewer left on earth who actually likes the Offspring, so that was meant as a compliment. Riddlin' Kids recorded a couple of very clever and bouncy tracks for this album, notably "Crazy", "Blind", "OK". All very happy, happy, joy, joy, and technically good enough. I'm not into the closing cover song of R.E.M.'s "It's The End Of The World As We Know It". That's something that you just don't do.
