Though all the criticism for ripping off other bands and songs, they did it well, the recording is amazing, but how they incorporated their influences is excellent. Yes, this was one of my favourite albums I have bought, proberly one of thee best, but it did have it breaks, 'Cancer' lets the album down and sometimes the huge contrast between songs does frustrate me, such as between 'Dead' (fun and poppy song), greatly contrasts with the metal 'This is how I disappear". But the first two songs, dead and the end, mix between them amazing, with a very short break and exciting.
Mama by far is one of the best, by keeping the mood of the album, but having a very interesting influence, whatever it is gyspy or whatever.
But, it has songs for a wider audience and a wider genre of music, which is why some songs have brought the album down in many people eyes. But awesome album. |
