Local Music ReviewsThe Signal SoundRewrite It AllSelf-ReleasedStreet: 02.21.2025The Signal Sound = Customer Service + MeowningFeaturing an intro track with an audio clip from the beloved, archetypal buddy-comedy Wayne’s World 2, Salt Lake four-piece The Signal Sound immediately presents themselves as loud, moody and as a classic paradigm of ’00s pop-punk core. With Mike Fralick on vocals and guitar, Randal Topper on drums, Merrill Tingey on guitar and Alex Romero on bass, The Signal Sound creates an energetic tincture of punk, rock and emo guitar riffs paired alongside rasped yet powerful vocals on their third record, Rewrite It All. Though it’s not as blatantly punk as the prior tracks, one could argue that you can still be punk rock while shedding a tear to your child playing in the ocean. The Signal Sound’s Rewrite It All is a welcomed addition to the local vault of Salt Lake’s punk rock expressions. —Jamie ChristensenRead more about the best in local music:Local Review: Die Shiny — GloryLocal Review: Hibernaut — Obsidian Eye
