It's been five years since The Riverdales recorded their classic album, "Storm the Streets", and promptly broke up. Five long years of listening to watered-down, empty imitations of the band and their sound, and hoping that maybe, just maybe, The Riverdales would return once again to give us a taste of punk rock at its best and most real.

Finally, the wait is over. The Riverdales are back. And they're back in a big way, with new blistering tunes of punk rock perfection, making up their third album, "Phase Three". Picking up where "Storm the Streets" left off, "Phase Three" is The Riverdales best and most ambitious album yet: a ballsy record that combines the furious, high energy sound of "Storm the Streets" with some of the golden oldies touches from the first album to create a record that is sure to be the band's crowning achievement. With Foster and Schafer again trading off on lead vocal duties, and new drummer Dan Lumley, the band is tighter and sharper than ever. With a different vocal style than you've heard from the band, and catchy tunes like "Homesick", and "A.W.O.M.", that will quickly have you wondering how you got by without The Riverdales for five years, not to mention Ben's soon-to-be-classic "Last Stop Tokyo", and Dan Schafer's Ronettes- like ballad "I Believe in You and Me", Phase Three is an instant punk rock classic.
