Artist description Another New Beginning is passionate and sincere in regards to their music. Much appreciation goes to their fans and supporters. Using a background of classic rock, alternative and punk sounds have been blended to form a distinct sound--easy to identify, but more difficult to classify. The San Jose-based band combines pop-like melodies, bleeding heart vocals, crunchy guitar, hard drums riffs, and solid basslines with a slight influence of funk. The name has sarcastic tones, with regards to making attempts of trying to start over and "make everything better this time." "It's a redundantly redundant redundancy," says frontman Jimmy Foley. "Our goal is to provide some sort of honest, expressive outlet," he adds, describing both the band's goals and the fans' attraction.
