Cute Is What We Aim For - The Same Old Blood Rush With A New Touch
Review by Damien Lovegrove
The Same Old Blood Rush With A New Touch is the debut studio album by American rock band Cute Is What We Aim For. Released in 2006, this album was an instant hit among fans of the pop-punk genre. The album features catchy tunes, witty lyrics, and upbeat rhythms, making it a perfect choice for those who love to dance and sing along.
The album opens with the track "The Curse of Curves," which became an instant hit and a fan favorite. The song features a catchy chorus and a memorable guitar riff that will stick in your head for days. Other standout tracks include "There's a Class for This" and "Newport Living," which showcase the band's unique sound and clever lyrics.
What sets this album apart is its ability to blend different genres seamlessly. The band incorporates elements of pop, punk, and emo into their music, creating a sound that is both fun and introspective. The album also features some slower, more emotional tracks like "Sweet Talk 101," which adds depth and complexity to the album.

About Cute Is What We Aim For
Cute Is What We Aim For is a pop punk band from Buffalo, New York. The band formed in 2005, and since have released two albums: The Same Old Blood Rush with a New Touch and Rotation. The band was previously signed with record label Fueled by Ramen for their two releases, but are currently unsigned.
On August 18, 2012, the band played an hour-long acoustic set with original members Shaant Hacikyan, Fred Cimato, and Jeff Czum. This was the first set the full band had performed in 6 years. During the set, the band announced that they were officially making a comeback. Cute Is What We Aim For played a comeback show with The Daydream Chronicles and Fictitious Ray on September 21, 2012 at Mohawk Place in Buffalo, New York. On January 20, 2013, Shaant Hacikyan announced at a show in Memphis, TN that the band would be releasing new material Spring/Summer 2013, with demos to come earlier than that. It is currently unclear if the release will be an EP or an LP. On 27 February 2013, Cute Is What We Aim For premiered a new demo called "Titanic". 20 days later on 27 March they posted a YouTube link to a lyric video of their new song named "Next to Me". On September 2, the band released another new song titled "A Closed Mind With an Open Mouth". The song was made available for purchase on the iTunes store the next day. A headlining tour was also announced to coincide with the newly released song. The band performed on the Vans Warped Tour in 2014.
