Album Rating: 4.5
Yea, after a decent listen, i think i can honestly say i like ...is a real boy better. Mostly because i do actually like the chorus hooks that were in there, and sure they can get annoying sometimes, but their really do hold my interest and i find them stuck in my head for ages afterwards. Tis record doesn't seem to do that. I mean the songwriting and music itself is awesome, but nothing yet really grabs me and throws me around.This Message Edited On 10.22.07

This was the best album I've heard in a long time. Great review. And Hayley Williams rocks in both songs she does. I'm not even a Paramore fan, but she just did an amazing job.

Excellet review man, good work. I'll definitely try to get this. Should I start with this or their past records?

Get Is A Real Boy, then this. It's interesting just to see the evolution of sound and they're both pretty good.

Formidable review. Don't worry about the length, it probably deserves it. I want this.

After one run through I can say this album doesn't disappoint. Second album is more of the say anything I like...grittier/angier. Disc one sounds better the second time around. Def grower.

Does anyone know what the song "No Soul" is about?

I was sure this would be the first time a Sputnik reviewer ever rated an album higher than AbsolutePunk, but I should have known they'd come through a sterling 96%.
haha good call. I saw that earlier, 96% what a joke. I post there a lot but the reviews are not only pretty average but their ratings are so stupidly high.
|

I really want to see the logarithm/formula/whatever for how they calculate those percentages. I think "Reviewer Tilt" gets way more representation in the review than it should, for instance. I like AP's style, but their reviews are really crazy sometimes.

Reviewer tilt on AP pretty much account for 90% of the final rating. Its stupid because I wanted to be number one on the metacritic page =(.
I shall change it to a 5!!!
btw got my copy today mmm so good.

You can't fault AP as an actual website as it's all really well done, but the reviews are just such a joke.

Ive noticed a heavy reliance on wiki and amg for reviews of older albums on that site.
And a heavy reliance on Nick Greer for newer albums as well!!!This Message Edited On 10.23.07

lunchforthesky: right, my thoughts exactly, you just wrote them better.

The album is hard to get into if you're not invested, but it hits hard in certain songs and even more so as a collective whole. "The Church Channel" is so awesome.
but idk i could raise it!This Message Edited On 10.23.07

Most old reviews on Sputnik are pretty hideous too though to be fair.

"I used to have a heart" came on shuffle today and then I realized it should be called "I used to have a load" because I totally blew one after I heard it.

I mean when they review older albums now. Or years later after their release.
