Raw, catchy and pissed-off, Love Songs for the Apocalypse is easy to relate to if you're a teenager (or used to be), bringing the listener back to those drunken moments of euphoria/loss/hopelessness. The pain and emotion is the vocalist's angsty, less-than-perfect lyrics rightfully becomes the centerpiece of the music perfectly backed by trumpet and guitar.
