| Alesana On Frail Wings of Vanity and Wax |
| ill admit that i was annoyed at the sound produced when i first heard it. i thought the singing was too whiney, and the screams were hard too understand, but after awhile, they grew on me. altough the lyrics are a bit repetitive, the melodies mix with break downs makes for a great first album. best song (despite the emo beggining) is "congratulations i hate you". anyone that claims to hate alesana needs to listen to the full album before judging them. |

| Taking Back Sunday Louder Now |
well the latest album (louder now) from one of my fav bands was decent. above average, but not quite amazing. let me break it down for you:
1. Whats it feel like to be a ghost- catchy song but the same thing we heard in "where you want to be". th verse, chorus verse, chorus then in to a slow bridge that builds up.. its just nothing new. and i couldnt really understand the meaning of the lyric
2. Liar (it takes one to know one- decent song, but sounds very similar to a song on this same album "miami". the intro to this and the chorus riff in miami are basically the same riffs only in a diff key with harmonizations
3. makedamnsure- great song. very impressed. the energy they put in to the bridge/outro keeps you anticipating it every time you hear the song
4.up against- i dot know why, but i just dont really like it.
5. my blue heaven- this is what i wanted the whole album to be like. not a ballad, but something new from them. they tend to follow the same pattern a lot, and this was out of the ordinary.
6. twenty twenty surgery- my favorite on the album. again, something new, catchy intro riff. could have more up tempo, and it was lyriccaly confusing, but amazing song
7.spin- this song is great for one reason: it is so punk. another great song for tbs
8. divine intervention- decent acoustic song. havent heard one by them since "new american classic". i think the vocals should have been turned up, but thats how they recorded it.
9. miami-good song, just the chorus riff sounds like "liar". great effects in the solo though
10. error operator- a redo of the spiderman 2 soundtrack one. def. spiced it up more.a different sound from them, and a great bridge, but sounds a little bit like "spin"
11. ill let you live- bad effort at a good closer. too long and too boring
i think it was worth buying, even if i sounded negative towards it. |
