Smashdown play fast melodic punk. If one sucked all the emoness out of Jawbreaker and took away the happy sounding-ness, you have Smashdown. Actually, maybe it's a little more like a roughedged Cooter? This almost makes me want to fly out to the midwest. I'm not too familiar with this band, so I can't say much more. It's good. Check out their label, Lab Rat Records, since Larry has been very supportive of Just Another Scene? and he's from Minnesota!
