"Keeper" by Yellowcard

It's not every day you hear a rambunctious pop punk band injecting a healthy dose of violin into their music. But that's what Yellowcard have been doing since they formed in 1997. The band draws its name from the "yellow card" used in soccer, which is an official caution given to a player.

It's a bit surprising that Yellowcard isn't bigger than they are. They got off to a reasonable start in 2004 when "Ocean Avenue" bolted to #37, but that has remained the band's only Top 40 entry since. Their follow-up record produced one more chart entry when the title track, "Lights And Sounds," made it to #50. And their final chart appearance to date literally just made the Top 100 in 2011: "For You, And Your Denial" peeked in at #100.

This prolific and hard-working band has a lot to be proud of in their catalogue. "Keeper" is from their overlooked 2007 album, "Paper Walls."
