Currently in the studio, we still love their EP The Element of Surprise, and that only has four songs. With a sound that gets the best of Paramore and Fallout Boy with their girl / guy lead vocals, it’s impossible not to be caught up in the excitement these youngsters put into their music. Here’s hoping for a big 2010.

Never has high-energy punk/pop been spunkier. Life On Hold at their worst kind of sounds like the punk rock Donnie and Marie. Driving music with great hooks and tight harmonies couldn’t possibly sound sunnier and cheerier than the four songs on this EP. The trouble is, with all the high fructose corn syrup dripping on the eardrums, the songwriting is effervescent and relentlessly memorable. The cynical musician in me wants to hate this as much as all the mindless pabulum played on Mix 98.5, and yet the songs still sound fresh and earnest. Damn you, Life on Hold!! Damn you to hell!

Life On Hold, a band that Ricci (and BMS) has nothing but praise for. "I will tell you right now that they are one of the hardest working bands in Boston," says Ricci. "They get it done and they're a lot of fun onstage. They are young, but they're certainly one of the most professional and nicest bands around. They're really good people, I like them a lot."

"Life on Hold, a band from Billerica, Mass. Their performance took place on a smaller, solar-powered stage. Their half-hour set was extended an additional 20 minutes because of audience demand for their music. Life on Hold brought to the stage a solid, tightly performed combination of metal and hard rock instrument work with an energetic and powerful female lead vocalist." (John Tyczkowski - The UCONN Daily Campus)
