Even though they’re based in LA now, Maryland band Good Charlotte are still very much in touch with their roots. After breaking into mainstream popularity with their second album, The Young and the Hopeless in 2002, the 4-piece outfit of best friends and brothers have steadily released records with the intent of mixing it up with each new release (to the distaste of some fans) while still staying true to themselves. Their fifth album, Cardiology, came out Tuesday, and with it, the band is toying with a few changes, including a new label, last minute producer change and more personal lyrics.
