And then i can ease up towards the end of the album. This is a fantastic album in it's production. The music is as angst-ridden and frustrated as the lyrics. The music screams just like the lyrics. This the perfect treatment for someone confused, angered, suicidal, manically depressed, it's for anybody. And to top it all off it help to bring industrial to an ever bigger audience than Ministry did.4.0 excellentThe Used In Love and DeathDespite the fact that it can be considered "Emo", In Love and Death is deep in it's punk roots. It is actually Emo, in my opinion, Emo was really bands like Fugazi......not Cute is What We Aim For or My Chem. Some of the lyrics are almost childish, but all through the album; the hooks, programming, and structures will allow you to fall in love with this album.3.0 goodLinkin Park Hybrid TheoryThis has now reached almost "classic" status, but Rap-Rock and Rap Metal was pioneered way before Linkin Park, this album is simply overrated. The album overall, is quite a promosing effort though. And LP does add in their own style by adding in some electronica....2.5 averagePanic! at the Disco A Fever You Can't Sweat OutA Fever You Can't Sweat Out is that weird kid at school that tries to fit in, and succeeds at a certain extent. The first half is the kid being himself and the second half of the album is the kid trying to fit in. The first half teeny bopper pop that teenage girls go crazy over and the second half, traditional music that sounds like stuff you'd here during A Las Vegas resort or if you went back in time. The way the album is sit up, it sounds like a desperate attempt to stand out. Despite the overplaying of "I Write Sin Not Tragedies", if you give Panic! A chance, you may find songs that you might listen to, several years from now. Give songs like "Build God, Then We'll Talk" and "Lying Is the Most Fun a Girl Can Have Without Taking Her Clothes Off" a chance. At least I know I'd listen to them several years from now, but if you want something to sing along to at the moment, stick to "I Write Sin Not Tragedies" and "But It's Better If You Do". Now, I love Panic! At the Disco's music, it's just the image they give out that I hate. You will know what I mean when you sign up for an online forum and see what the teeny boppers say about the band, it's almost like "Looks over Personality". - Zack Perez
