In this episode of the A Band Called Punchline podcast, the guys dive into the era of the 2010 album Delightfully Pleased. With the departure of both drummer and founding member PJ Caruso and guitarist and vocalist Jon Belan, Chris and Steve found themselves at a crossroads. Bringing back Paul seemed unlikely, but a reunion was on the horizon. Paul introduced a young drummer named Cory, who stepped in at the last minute to play drums on the album and subsequently joined the band. Recorded in Steubenville, Ohio, at a familiar studio, the album saw the return of producer Jamie Woolford, who had worked with the band on their previous album, Just Say Yes, in 2008. This exciting time also took the band back to Japan, though a misplaced passport left them stressing until the very last minute. Additionally, this era brought about the band's sketchy alter egos, adding another layer of fun and creativity to their journey. Delightfully Pleased marked a return to form while still pushing the boundaries of the band’s sound.
