"Responsibility" arrived in May 2000 as part of MxPx's The Ever Passing Moment, and it's a lesson in how much bounce a guitar, a bass, a drum kit and a couple of voices can generate. Jerry Finn produced, engineered and mixed it, and the sound is buffed to a high shine: tight, chugging guitar, snare cracks you could set a watch by, a chorus built to be shouted straight back at the stage.
Mike Herrera sings lead and plays bass, Tom Wisniewski handles the guitar and throws in the backing vocals, and Yuri Ruley keeps the drums at a sprint without ever letting the song blur.
