I'm pissed off/depressed..I'm gonna' put this album to the test and listen to it to see if it makes me feel better.

I think that is serves well as a pissed off/ depressed album... The War is aweosme and It Hurts is probably the best

[QUOTE=Invalid-Username]
And for those who like It Hurts here is the song live[/QUOTE]

Yeah, that was pretty bad quality. But as far as I can tell, Tom's singing live has [I]really[/I] improved. Tom was never a good live singer, but he actually sounded pretty close to the CD in this.

well just got the ablum... almost done and well.... its good if not grate, kind of sweet and naive really... one of those ablum i'll lission to a lot becuse its one i'll put on when i'm in a "don't know what i want on" mood, or just as something in the background when talking to friends and stuff... becuse ibasicly it just so unoffencive and nice

Too true.

Well, just listened to the album. It's nothing spectacular, but it's soothing and nice to listen to. My favorite songs as of now are: [I]It Hurts, The Adventure,[/I] and [I]The Gift.[/I]

Man, all I've been listening to is the new album.

I like it a lot, and the Gift, is actually a good song, from what I thought.

The only problem, I can't tell the songs apart, and they sound similar, but tis still good.

I haven't been a big blink fan ever but it intriged me when AVA was making outragous claims about revolutionizing music and crap so I had to check them out. The story behind the stuff actually intrests me more than the actual music. The music is alright but is far from revolutionary in any way shape or form.

I get a wierd feeling when I listen to AVA, like it's got a sibliminal anti-depressant in it or something.

Tbh, even though the album isn't great imo, I keep putting it on and listening to it.

haha, wierd, i'm listening to it now and I can't stop smiling.

[QUOTE=yourstruly]haha, wierd, i'm listening to it now and I can't stop smiling.[/QUOTE]
The day I got it I put it on my iPod, and stepped out the door with Valkyrie Missile playing..The first time I'd ever listen to the album. I was smiling like that day would be the greatest day of my life.

As for the album, listen to it over and over in the proper order. You'll go insane, I'm loving this album now. At first I was thinking it was an ok, over-hyped album. Now it's basicly starting to live up to what Tom said. This is album kick a[B]ss[/B]. :chug:

In other news, which is still related. The lyrics from [I]Distraction[/I] are actually really awesome.

[I]There’s a field nearby
With words written in stone
My love will not die
Please let be known...

...The planes flew in
Their bombs did too
The city fell flat
The fires they grew...

...If that field nearby
Was still there to be used
Would you ever have known?
Those words were for you[/I]

Awesome lyrics in that song.

Both my accounts are in the top 10 :p

Just finished listening to the album. Honestly, I couldn't be more dissapointed. Aside from The War, the entire album sounded like one song to me. The same effects were used over and over to the point of being annoying. The music over top of the effects wasn't very good either. I found myself more bored than anything. Definitely wouldn't pay money for this.

Listen to it again and again and again. I felt the exact same way as you after first listen, now I love this album.

I do the same thing, just keep it playing.

I need to get it in the right order.

Thats what really did it for me..Listening to it in the right order and really hearing the theme behind each song. I also did an album review for it, but made sure not to give away anything except for the basic stuff, some lyrics and the way it makes you (me) feel.

I'll order it up later and listen to it (again), I think this will be my 5/6 time...

I agree with this actually.

At first, I felt like "oh, is that it? Tom, you're an idiot" etc etc

But I listened to it more and more, and each time the atmosphere each song gives me increases. It's just an album which is easy listening but takes a fair few listens to get into it.

Tip: Play it loud. The atmosphere is awesome.

I did that, I just went up into my bedroom, stuck the Cd in and listened to it loud while laying on my bed.

The riff at the start of 'The War' is so awesome.

All I listen to is AVA.

How do I stop :(

Click on a different song. Maybe twice. Depending on the program you use.

:)

Haha, ok, I'll try.

NP: Back Then-Mike Jones







It was the song the pointer went to :(

LMAO

I've got some PTW going, due to your advice to listen to them.

I'm really into the song [I]It Hurts.[/I] The two guitars blend in quite nicely. It makes me want to fall asleep. Great song, in my opinion.

I'm really out of opinions on the album, I wonder if AVA will come to New Zealand, that would be pretty rad/Expensive.

check out this photo I found

Is that a small AVA logo on the headstock of the guitar?

Last night, I put my headphones on, so I couldn't hear anything but the music, and put the AVA album on, so I could listen to it while I went to sleep. After about 5 hours of being in complete awe, I realised it was nearly 4 o'clock, and that this album is FÙCKING AWSOME. I completly agree with what people have been saying about how it grows on you. I'm finnally starting to realise what Tom's talking about. It really is an amazing album, and though some of the lyrics aren't the best, and sound cheesy in some places, the stories they tell are beautiful, yet haunting at the same time.

I really like this album.

hey is the ava album out?

Since I'm here and noone else is, I'll answer you.

It leaked.

[QUOTE=chumpradio]Is that a small AVA logo on the headstock of the guitar?[/QUOTE]

Looks like it to me.

Valkyrie Missile-9/10
Distraction-8/10
It Hurts-5/10
Do It For Me Now-6/10
The Adventure-10/10
The War-6/10
A Little's Enough-9/10
The Gift-7/10
Good Day-6/10
Start The Machine-7/10

Overall album rating-9.9/10 just because of the power it gives off.

I'm yet to hear an AVA song.

Are you waiting, or just don't want to.

'Cause its becoming one of my favorite albums.
