It's also played by actual instruments, which I always like more than not.

Should we tell him it's actually played by four human beings?

from now on being played by actual instruments is 5 worthy

the whole concept of actual instruments vs. fake instruments has always been a joke.

Wow, people are talking about something I said, guess I should feel honored. No, actual instruments doesn't constitute a 5; blending a variety of my favorite genres into a cohesive album that I enjoy start to finish gets a 5. It's some of the best original music I've heard recently. Should I apologize if my tastes aren't edgy enough for you all?

letlive. - fake instruments. Well that is funny. I suppose I should have said "Letlive seems to have expanded their sound, while still retaining the basic band arrangement of string instruments and drums. On the new album they have created more complex textures and variety without resorting to programmed beats and synth filler tracks as is common with bands trying to overcome a slump in creativity".

there's nothing wrong with programmed beats and synths, but a lot of bands just them in gimmicky and annoying ways because they're just not good at songwriting. also, they tend to completely conflict with a band's normal sound, so again, bad songwriting.

""never trust a letlive. fan that has never listened to Fake History" -Roger Miret"
that's not right, but I was wondering: are there fans of the first two albums but not fake history?

Thanks RatKing, I gave it a listen and didn't honestly like it as much as the new album. It seemed less coherent, there was less that grabbed my attention immediately. Listening to Glassjaw now though, definitely good stuff.
And thank you as well Viper, I've basically been lurking here before the site was even live. Now I have adderall, so I type more and am more open to sharing and defending my opinion.

I can understand that Cygnatti, and do agree. I think Coheed's album with Chris Penne is my biggest example of synths gone wrong, or pick any of the Rush albums from the 80s.
My real problem with Stay What You Are, is that is came right after Through Being Cool, the best album of my highschool years. They had also just released "A drag in D Flat" and "Sell My Old Clothes" on a compilation. SWYA came out and it was so soft, it was just a much different direction than I was expecting. I wanted that edge that they were teasing on the compilation, not soft songs about drowning because your friends are high.
