Mixed feelings... July 15, 2010

This album, like many in my collection, was an impulse-buy, the type of purchase where one runs the risk of ending up with someone thing incredibly worthwhile, or something that really...isn't. This album was both.

Let's start with the good. While most are familiar with "Love Drunk" and "Two is Better Than One" thanks to repetitive radio waves, my favorites were actually "Someone Like You" and "Go." Yes, both of them are ballads, but what struck me was the depth behind them. People want something that they can identify with, and soul-searching and sorrow are easily accessible human emotions, as is a sense of loss. For that same reason, "She's Got a Boyfriend Now" is another one of my likes from this album.

Now, for the bad. To be blunt, "The Shot Heard Round The World" was a fail. There just wasn't anything remarkable about it, and I find myself skipping the track whenever it starts to play. It's a whole lot of clanging and crashing that signifies nothing. "Chemicals Collide" was just as forgettable but thankfully, not as annoying.

On the whole, it's an okay album. I'd leave it on for background music for chores, but ultimately, that's about it.

Has It's Moments... March 24, 2010

I'm giving it a 4 because songs like Someone Like You and Go are just plain great. They show the kind of musical talent this band is capable of, even though other songs like She's Got A Boyfriend Now make you want to cringe in disgust. My girlfriend made me listen to this band when they first came out and I wrote them off as standard teen fare. However, this is a much better release than the debut and shows the band's ability to grow musically. Some songs are great, others are just plain bad. I wouldn't consider myself a fan of this band but if they continue growing at this pace it would seem their next album might just be extremely impressive.

Decent sophomore effort January 23, 2010

Decent sophomore attempt.. guitars, vocals, and drums are technically sound. Song structure, melodies, and lyrics are good for the most part. This album sounds a little like The Summer Project's new EP (if you don't know them, look it up). This album is a 4/5. I will say that I liked their first album better, though.
