Thoughts
If you like bands like Blink182 or Good Charlotte, then you’ll definitely love Good 4 Nothing. Their music has a high tempo, is very energetic, and full of fun guitar solos. A lot of their lyrics are in English, which is spoken pretty well. Overall, this is a great punk rock band.Click to read/add your opinion!
