La Sera - Hour of the Dawn

At least once a year, an album comes out that begs for summer listening.  This year, it's this one.  This is La Sera's third album, and I think it's their best.  On this album, Katy Goodman and company have been able to marry their reverb pop with punk, and the result is fantastic.  Roll the windows down, crank up this album and sing as loud as you can.
Fun fact: I listened to this album while driving up the Maine coast, and it was absolutely perfect.

Rating: 5/5
Favorite track: "10 Headed Goat Wizard"
(That's probably the most metal name for a sunny pop song I've ever heard.)
