I have alot of nostalgia when it comes to Our Lady Peace, their concert being the first I ever went to and Gravity being one of the first records I ever really enjoyed all the way through. What's different with OLP from the other bands of my childhood like Smash Mouth and Simple Plan is that I've acually grown to enjoy their music more throughout the years. Infact, their best record Spiritual Machines has taken a pretty permanent spot in my car's cd case. With more knowledge of music though I have realized that Healthy In Paranoid Times and my childhood favorite Gravity were kind of duds, not terrible or even bad mind you, but pretty stale. So when I heard the single All You Did Was Save My Life from their new record, Burn Burn, and enjoyed it quite abit I was quite interested on how this would be. And I'm glad to say that this is definatly their best record since Spiritual Machines. Raine Maida may not show himself to be a creative or lyrical genious but he is at his most inspired, and though they aren't back to their top artistic peak they have never sounded so confident. Plus the guitar work is pretty insane.

Hello guys,I am new from sputnik music and I am going to review the new Our Lady Peace Album Titled-Burn Burn,Im going to go through this album by reviewing every song,i find it easier,anyways leave your comments below if you agree or disagree,lets get started...
1. All You Did Was Save My Life-So...this is the song that has been hitting airwaves for a while now,and although it is a great song,with some uplifting lyrics,it is not the best song on the album. 3.5 stars
2. Dreamland-This song starts off with piano and then Raine Maida sings through this dark,yet uplifting song,about kids of the future. This is one of my favourites. 4 stars
3. Monkey Brains-Starts off as a 90's punk song and quickly tearns into a quirky anthem,with supurb lyrics,even though it drops down into a quiet verse,it barely loses any of it's steam. 4.5 stars
4. The End Is Where We Begin-Ok this is one of the albums down falls,it is definetly not a bad track,but it is a track that has absoloutly nothing going for it,you could call it filler. It has extremly average lyrics,and it is a standard rock song 3 stars
5. Escape Artist-This song is almost all acoustic and has incredble lyrics,with a haunting chorus,you can really appreciate Raine Maida's vocals here,It's more of an experimental approach for Our Lady Peace. 4.5 stars
6. Refuge-Ok if it wasnt for this song,i probably would of given this album a 4.5,in conclusion this song is just plain boring and has no uplifting lyrics at all. BORING 2 stars
7. Never Get Over You-Let's be honest thier are a number of songs that are about relationships and the ups and downs off them,but Raine Maida adds such a neat texture to this beautiful song,you can't help but appreciate this track. 4 stars
8. White Flags-This Song Rocks! Most of the Burn Burn album has been slow,and focused on melody,in a good way,but this song just drops all of this,and converts into a fast paced rock anthem that has ambition and attitude. 5 stars
9. Signs Of Life-Yet another acoustic song,with great lyrics,thier is nothing wrong with this song,but it feels a little out of place on this album compared to the rest of the songs. 3 stars.
10. Paper Moon-What A Closer! I am confident this will go down as one of the greatest Our Lady Peace songs of all time, This song makes you smile,makes you want to sing,and it inspires you, A Perfect Way To End An Excellent Album 5 stars
Well,this is my first review and i hope you guys enjoyed it,place your comments below,and tell me if you think i should review albums song by song,or if i should just give a summery of the album,Thanks guys! Hope You Enjoyed My Review.
