Split Habit--Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is

Self described Apocalypse Pop rockers Split Habit hail from Chicago. I’m not sure what the "Apocalypse" refers to in their description, but they certainly are pop. They’re a mish-mash of many bands now gracing popular radio stations, and jump from one to the other between songs.

"Ms. Vandersanden" almost sounds like an All American Rejects rip-off. The high-pitched vocals, simple themes, and even simpler instrumentals are quite dull, and have all been done before. The songs all have pretty much the same formula, verse here, chorus there, solo in between.

Split Habit tries to mimic bands like All American Rejects, Motion City Soundtrack, and Jimmy Eat World but just comes off as a bad rip-off. Give them a try if you like these bands, but otherwise steer clear.
