Lolage Hawthorne Heights are GAY.

Even by the standards of an occasional pop-emo botherer like myself, they're gay.

[HaziLPTonz]

cbs has the funniest story on "emos", both funny and very stupid

 

i love the bit where theyre interviewing this mum and shes like..."i thought they dressed up like elmo on haloween,now it makes so much sense to me"

 

or the portion where this kid,typical, black hair cusped down to his eyes,black hoodie, is sleeping on the couch, randomly wakes up,grabs a blde from his hoodie and starts slicing up his wrist...=_=

 

i actually dont mind surplus sons, while yer i agree they are abit old in terms of what theyre trying to do, but u know, if its their influence, u cant really blame em, theyll learn eventually. put it this way, panic at the disco werre massive blink 182 fans, yet they fanned their music out.

 

Yellowcards new album is out, and its a major love for punk-pop-riock lovers out there, already rated the best punk/pop album to come out in 5 years by absolutepunk.net, im hoping someone(without prejudice or hate to the punk pop OR yellowcard-(im looking at you stenners,i know you absolutely hate these guys,ur not gonna have ur mind changed by Paper Walls either) to have a review of this, the leak is out and the album drops on the 17th

[Stenners]

I dont irrationaly hate said albums though, I have every genre in my record collection it's just generes such as Pop Punk are often very stale.

 

I even once was a fan of Hellogoodbye till their album came out, as was the case with Greenday back in the good ol days =D

Beatboxing supremo JT is back, okay he isn't the best beatboxer in the world

but when this song starts you know your in for something interesting & for a

mainstream pop song this is a very rare thing to have. The song has alot of

balls to it, it's dance groovey and the slower more melodic ending is very nice

if only more pop music was this good.

This weeks itunes freebie, this free single is a piano laced melodic inoffensive

piece of muisc designed to please rathe than challenge. It's an easy song to get

in to & it isn't that bad at all. However it is safe, maybe a bit too safe to the point

that all of it's feeling is lost, but still it has a nice ending.

Singer song writter pretty boy 'Bright Eyes' presented us with the luke warm but shoulda

been scorching offering 'Casagada' earlier this year.... it was kind of a let down. This song

is deffinatly one of the choice cuts, it's hooky & dramatic and is per usual with 'Bright Eyes'

lyrically one of the best songs you could ever want to hear. An emotional rollercoaster of

a song that any emotionally unstable person should cheeeeeck out.

http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=zElEs8yw7fw

 

It will be incredibly naive of you guys expecting me to go out all guns blazing over this track

quite simply the best song on their last effort, I actually quite like this songs dynamics

the hand claps go well with the their style, it's dancey. The hook pretty powerful the

only thing really letting it down is alot of the guitar riffage enters cheesey cliche territory.

Bats For Lashes is one strange artist, pretty much on the verge of Bjork accept not quite as

weird, this is a spoken word song...... well this sounds like a pretty bad idea but the eary backing

the great hook it's all accountable for a very well done and very well accomplished song. Disturbed

twisted & just brilliant.

In a similar vein to 'The Spinto Band' this band of young peoples are very cheery make

sweet pop music which makes you dance, smile and generally sing. Its great I have been

blowing the horn for this band for a while, no it's not arty, clever or particually original

what it is though is a show case for what radio pop rock SHOULD sound like as opposed

to what it DOES sound like.

Okay so we are hyping this band to death on this forum but it's within great reasson

this song is a terrific example of subtle melodies & that it doesnt have to be in your face

to be a hooky summery song. It's unique drumming pattern, vocal placements on o so sweet

throbbing bass? Makes this a sure fire TRACK OF THE WEEK!

The name of the song is Fireworks. And it's a great psychedelic low budget video. Way cooler, creative, and visually pleasing than the vast majority of those high budget mainstream videos.

Actually back to this point, i'm sure I appriciate and listen to more bands regually then you do so this whole 'Matt is so negative bout music' should be shushed. I explore and give everything a chance, thats me, where as u guys look forward to an album maybe once a month, every week the is somehting that interests me out.

Now Ive been away for a few days or I would have done this earlier.:thumbsup:

Firstly props to Frib for reinventing the idea and to stllmn for taking the admin job.

 

Stenners - Pirate Music

I very much like the ambient reverb at the start, but I must say I'm not a huge fan of the genre that Stenners is trying to create. Despite my confliction, the production is flawless, and the sound is perfect. Great sound overall. 8/10

 

Stenners - Scenic

Now I may not be a fan of the trance genre, but I am a fan of Stenners sampling efforts. His echoy

typewriter noise and phone beeps blend in very well, despite eventually become a bother. But again he pulls through with unmatchable production, and sound, quality. I also like the choice of strings used. :thumbsup: 9/10

 

Breakdown_Conspiracy - Everything w/ Yesterday

*cough*

 

Firehawk - Nterlude

Very nice and ambient, close to my heart, yet the beat could have had more thought put into it.

:D8/10

 

Mr Pool - Sun Stay

The intro Im am very envious of, because it sounds very nice. But one the song gradually starts my intrest is lost, as it happends in most mash-ups. It just sounds to loud and to much distortion from both songs. 5/10

 

SON ft. Breakdown_Conspiracy - Dark

I cant my stand my drums in the song because it was a quick overnight thing. But the guitar sample

it flawless. It sounds beautifully chilling.

7/10 on SON's behalf.

 

Jeezy - N.O.C.B.M.

Hmm well it seems Trance-wise, Stenners and Jeezy have always been the to driving forces. But this time it seems Jeezy lacks out against Stenners "Scenic". Mainly because it lacks something..

what that is but I'm not sure. But I must give kudos to Jeezy because of his more Mainstream sound and his less annoying, random instruments. I'd say it sounds very much like music from a Final Fantasy game.

8/10

 

Breakdown_Conspiracy - White (This Sharp Chill)

*skips*

 

Ceiban - Silence is Flawless

One thing is would wish is that Frib would stop changing his music name ><

But other wise this ambient lil tune has much thought into it. But alot of the time it just

sounds like random jamming, with obvious mistakes being heard.

6/10

 

Choaten Recordz - Stell Dir Vor

A very unoriginal idea but it works well, of course the stand it vocalists cannot hold a candle to MS and HB, but its good.

6/10

 

Stenners - Blind Owl

This is probavbly a 2nd fav track from Stenners. its not as random as Pirate Music, and it flows nice. Not much to say really..

8/10

 

Mr Pool - Fear 9.0

Another Mash up hmm? Again some peices work very well, like the intro and some bits druing the main parts of the song, and at the end (which is my favourite). Id say and improvement from Sun Stay.

7/10

 

Jeezy - Matrix Re-reloaded

 

I dont know how much is actualy changed from the original, but excellent music all the same. Nice for playing an online FPS :-P

:D8/10

 

Chaoten Recordz - W-City

Im sorry to say this is one of the worst tracks on the album. I dont know why, I think its the vocals, they have to much background noise, but the music is nice:thumbsup:

3/10

 

SON - Song A

I kind of a random song, but it reminds me when I was in a band and used to jam with friends, nice solo

4/10

 

Praya - 26 Reasons To Hate Him

Despite the music being sampled, it sounds VERY nice, and works well. I honestly had know idea it was sampled when I 1st heard it. The vocals are great too, despite the sound levels being off at times, "You can have all the cheese in the world, but that don't mean you have all the crackers" is awseome! :thumbsup:9/10

 

 

Oh well that my review done.

Please don't fight to much children.

[Friðbjörn]

album: Dear love: A Beautiful Discord

artist: Devil wears prada

genre: metal/heavy rock, alternative rock (influences ranging from math rock to pop punk to death metal)

 

 

Well, needless to say I expected something typically screamo emo angsty wannabe metal something, with a name like that, lol. But I was taken by surprise by this album. (oh and about the name...I went and read the wiki on this band after listening to the album, and was surprised by hearing they're christian, lol. and the name apparently has a deep meaning for them, in how they oppose all this obsession with material possessions)

Alright let's get to it. The intro of the album is one of those kinda...I dunno. You listen to it, and wonder how on earth the band made those sounds, and yet you kinda think just, "bleh". The good thing is though that the intro ties with the opening track, in the way the intro ascends to this audio climax and the first song kicks in with heavy drums and distorted guitars. Instant rush of adrenaline. Well done. The piano loops in between really surprised me, but they were beautiful and surprisingly enough mixed well with the other parts of the song, which were of heavy metal-ish nature.

Track 3 (song two) is one of those tracks whose title confuses me. But, yeah. The vocalist kind of showcases everything on this one. The guitars are rather heavy, but pretty simple, and the bass only stood out at one point in the song, which is honestly not good enough bass work. But yeah, again to the vocalist. It starts off with him in this higher pitched screaming, but then he makes the transition into this Cannibal Corpse-ish really low pitched cookie monster growl, which for the guitar part it accompanied, fit perfectly. Then later on he goes into actual singing, with melodies and everything, and the bridge vocally sounds like typical pop punk or mainstream rock or whatever. Huge downpoint. Rest of the song is kickass though. It blows your head off.

And The Sentence Trails Off... really shows how this band incorporates many influences into their music. The electronica elements remind me of Rammstein (not how they blend with the rest really, but yeah), the tempo changes and deathgrowls are traits of deathmetal, the piano breakdown reminds me of the acoustic breakdowns of Opeth, the melodic singing is pop punk all over, and the technicality of the song is somewhere between Rammstein, and simpler old thrash Metallica stuff, like Battery (except the soloes of course).

 

The rest of album goes a bit downhill, for me, except the last track, which opens up and unfolds instrumentally, but then there's this one part which kind of sounds like a verse or something with vocals, and then the song ends kind of abruptly, but still not a bad job at all.

 

Regardless of anything else you might say of this band, you can say that the members are thinkin outside the box. They're trying different things. The blend, they fuse. They're unafraid to incorporate stuff into their rock that other bands would shy away from. Sometimes it sounds rather silly, but you can't blame the guys for being sick of the conventional methodology of mainstream rock. I really sat back and laughed, and thought to myself, wow. This is really not your average album.

 

 

If you like fusions you'll like this. The tracks go from here to there. One minute it sounds like Lostprophets, next minute like death metal, next like I dunno what. Don't be surprised to hear a rapid keyboard melody, seemingly unfitting to palm muted distorted riffs, in the background. Vocals change to different emphasis in the instrumentation.

However I think many people that listen to this album are gonna go "wtf are these guys thinking??? zomg". And that's because it might be too much. Too wide ranged. Too much all over the place instead of focusing on distinct things. And while I give huge credit to the willingness to try different things (that really open your ears to different things) just within, say 45 seconds, the turnout isn't always fabulous.

 

So, great ambition and experimentation.

That's a pretty good review for their first album

[Stenners]

http://ec1.images-amazon.com/images/I/418WdLJ-lOL._AA240_.jpg

 

Artist: Sonic Youth

Album: Daydream Nation (20th Aniversary Edition)

Genre: Noise Rock/Punk/Alternative

 

Every so often you get an album that changes the face of music forever &

no we aren't talking about these flash in the pan albums which sell loads n loads n loads

but ulitmatley leave very little impact ala Hybrid Theory. This band, by this point already

4 albums strong + a side project in Cicone Youth reached their absaloute pinacle, never

before has a band been so consistently acclaimed, for the past 25 years this band has

released triumphent record after triumphent record (-NYC Ghosts or whatever it was called(.

This band has influenced many bands such as Nirvana & Yeah Yeah Yeahs, in fact Nirvana's

signing had a great deal with Youth frontman Thurston Moore. Late 80's saw bands emerging

and at the time and probably to an extent much more succesful then Sonic Youth in terms of sales

Pixies were starting to get some sort of recognition and Nirvana were begining to emerge with

an anticipated album.

 

http://panther1.last.fm/proposedimages/original/6/296/401025.jpg

 

Anyways, very few albums I have listend to can claim a place in my heart such as this one

but heres the interesting part, when my uncle first thrusted this album on my lap I just didnt

understand it. I actually hated it and got bored very very quicky, it was just flat to me and

meant nothing.... I don't quite know when or why it happend but I found the CD and decided

to try it again (after all many consider this to be the finest CD released) & I was captivated,

the sprawling guitars, mad feedback, space rock vocals, etc. Frankly it has more or less anything

you could ever wan't from an acomplished album. The opening chords of the album lead to those

who are familiar with the record to have a minor heart murmer as your heart misses a beat, the

truley captivating song that is 'Teenage Riot' kicks in and your off. At the time this introduced

the listeners to a more melodic, spacey and dream like Youth but at the same time it also

introduced us a much les no-wave and much more punk sonic youth.

 

 

http://panther1.last.fm/proposedimages/original/6/296/253649.jpg

 

This song is followed by the much more hooky and punky 'Silver Rocket' which has a very strong

melody and even a mad noise rock out in the middle, this album is full of the guitar play & song

writing that many bands aspire to but can never hope to ahcieve. Not restrained to 'Chords'

this band loves to make weird noises, off chords and play off each others feed back at nauscia

'The Sprawl' is an excelent example of.... well Sprawling guitars. In this album full of highlights

another very special couple of songs to me are 'Erics Trip' with its bizzare arrangements and

the more othordox yet not short of brilliant 'Rain King' the album leaves you feeling like you

have been taken away, superb musicanmanship, lyrically an emotionally umbalanced album

which even leads into murder. This is a nice lil dark album which ends on a superb trilogy, I really

can't find much to falter about it to be honest, okay its a task to get into but the rewards

are totally worth it.

 

http://panther1.last.fm/proposedimages/original/6/296/300315.jpg

 

So what is new on this special edition? Well at the end of disc 1 the is a demo of Erics Trip

which is a little more tight but it's disc 2 which youth fans have been looking forward to the most.

It has a brilliant live cd which to top it all off includes 4 extremely rare cover versions of various

songs, where as before you had to look on ebay to find them at HUGE ass prices buthere they are

and they are some of the best covers I have ever heard. Few albums can ever claim to be as

acomplished as this one, the pinnacle of rock, quite possibly the finest album I am likely to hear

for a long time....... the really isnt much to falter even Providence (an interlude) captures

my attention longer then alot of the stuff put out today, a record that changed the face of music?

Deffinatly, a worthy re-release...... i'd say it will be the best re-issue you will see all year.

I hate their choice of artwork.... I really do

 

Artist: The New Pornographers

Album: Challengers

Genre: Alt.Pop/Indie

 

I like to stick by this, one of the most under appriciated forces in pop music currently

around, the New Pornographers offer incredbily catchy & thrilling pop music that sends

tingles down your spine open up the ranky clouds and shove sunshine in every single

damned orophis on your body. Yes it's damned catchy stuff, 'Twin Cinema' and 'New Romantic'

are under appriciated gems, this their newest effort shows the band once again returning to what

it knows & thats upbeat music which eats away at your subconscious till you can't help but

smile when you see a bird perhaps hit it's head on blossoming flower.... ahhh yes thats

what life is all about, screw the self pitty! Enjoy yourself. Okay one observation I have

made is this album is a lil slower then their previous efforts but the first 4 or 5 tracks in particular

are up there with the best they have done, the brilliant harmonies the interplay between both

vocalists and interesting arrangments and selection of instruments make a standard hooky

approachable pop song into growers, yes this is music that starts off great but just keeps on

getting better.

 

http://panther1.last.fm/proposedimages/original/6/1001820/104731.jpg

 

When it comes down to it though this record does recycle ideas later on but thats not

a totally terrible thing, it just makes the album drag a little bit! Thankfully the short and sweet

option is here, it's not an overly long album 1 or 2 tracks on top of the excisting selection

would of certainly of really hurt it..... thankfully at 48mins it just about saves it's self from this

it's just such a shame the rear end doesn't match up to the sublime start.

i ll g back a bit, i like jeezy's single review, the new singles out are really good, especially FOBs takeover,breaks over track, its personally one of my faves off IOH, only just shaded by Thnks Fr Th Mmrs. while the guitars are indeed cheezy, they were done by both Ryan Ross and Chad Gilbert, not actually reorded by patrick or joe, which i spose gives it abit of a differnt feel

 

anyways, someone do a review of Yellowcard's Paper Walls, i ll do my own review soon as well.

 

i dont mind the new pornogprahers, but the name is odd indeed, mind you nothing should surprise me with names like...whole wheat bread,panic at the disco,red jumpsui apparatus...and my favourite..."spoon"

[Stenners]

Artist: Yellowcard

Album: Paper Walls

Genre: Pop Punk

 

Adreneline pumped pretty glossed pretty boy rock, thats often the case with Pop Punk

but for me to slam this band over such cradentials would be very wrong for me to do! Okay

let's look at this from an open perspective for a pop punk album the are a couple of interesting

ideas, musically it is indeed sound.... & quite frankly it does what many pop punk albums can't

do & that is satisfy. The opening track 'The Takedown' suprised me from the word go

I really wouldn't mind dancing/moshing or whatever to this it's got a nice pace to it nice riffs

sure as hell a good way to kick off an album. This generally continues 'Keeper' being a tiny

bit slower but still appriciatable 'Light Up The Sky' is one of the albums highlights by offering

something different, more instruments which is rare in a pop punk album which usualy

thrives on the boring Drums, Guitar & Bass formula.

 

http://media.canada.com/1785a528-bef3-4f04-af39-9312146bfd98/yellowcard.jpg

 

In general this album pretty much has the feel of a classic Pop Punk album

it's consistent & though it's all been done before it rarley get's done much better

and though this is nothing about the album that challenges or indeed requires

much consentration to digest it's just a good strong pop punk album. With hooks everywhere

some simple yet attractive riffs & a simple yet effective structure in each song which

is varied threw out (if they stcuk to the same structure this album woulda been terrible).

Could this be a band working at it's peak? Quite possibly! Will this be like 'Dookie' and go

down as cool pop punk albums? Yes.

Album: They Came From The Sun

Genre: Post-Hardcore/Indie

 

YCNI:M are one bad that dabble in Post hardcore that I have the upmost respect for

they sound like a post hardcore band on shrooms, the guitars swirly and the general sound

of the band incredibly spacey, especially that seen on superb Ingoto. Here that general

sound continues as you may have expected but with it comes a more arty & indie sound?

The result is a far more melodic endevour where the guitar thrashing, yelling n general cries

of despair remain but it's more melodic.... its more sophisticated if you will. And yes this

sound does very much suit them & this is an album where indie and emo kids a like are likely

to find some common ground.... even if it is for completelty different reassons.

album: Body Count

artist: Body Count

genre: hardcore punk, metal, rapcore

year: 1992

 

Yes you guessed it, this is Ice-T's metal band! Who knew? I didn't, that's for sure.

Now this is BC's oh so politically incorrect debut album. I'm guessin all parents associations went bananas over this one. The first track for example, which is a skit, features Ice-T killing a cop. Among lyrical topics is Body Count's members having sex with daughters of KKK members among other things, with quite graphic descriptions.

However this band is quite harmless. They lobby for black civil rights and protest the conditions in black LA neighbourhoods. The Winner Loses is a sort of a ballad that describes how drugs basically fuck you up.

 

This band is generally considered rapcore, or so I've learned, although the rap influence is minimal on this album. Ice-T also doesn't rap on this album, his vocals are mostly spoken, and occasionally sung. (an exception is the last track on later versions, like mine, which is an old Ice-T rap song called Freedom of Speech, but that replaced the controversial song Cop Killer) The music on this album is mostly heavy rock or metal, with the hardcore punk usually staying close by. I first thought when I listened to the first songs on the album, "oh no not another all power chord band" but the lead guitarist actually pulls off some nice soloes on this album, some longer than others. Some of this stuff is even almost thrash metal, but not as heavy as that though.

The exceptions are the ballad The Winner Loses, and the short instrumental C-Note, which is quite beautiful and should frankly have been longer.

 

Body Count knows how to rock, and Ice-T actually does know how to be a frontman, that is when he's not doing the typical rap antics of "Body count in the house", or "you can suck my (you know what)" and laughing evilly. Him talking over Ernie-C's soloes also isn't cool at all. However he can be a nice lyricist, fighting prejudice on a metaphorical level in Momma's Gotta Die Tonight, for example.

 

 

This is gonna appeal to you if you're angry and want release of your anger. The melodic parts of this album aren't many and this band sounds like a cross between RATM and Public Enemy, at least lyrically, and without the nice soloes and the two melodic songs the guitar on this album would be totally less than impressive. The riffs are often good hooks and very catchy though, so not all bad work.

so I guess this musically deserves around a fiver.

These recommended album reviews should at least be the ones to contain a link to the album.

 

Like, if it's an 8/10 or higher.

[azemkamikaze03]

damnit i wanted to do paper walls ohwell lol

um naw i wouldnt reccomend providing links.

only because if its a great album, then the artist

deserve the money.

[Friðbjörn]

I'm all for providing the links. you provide a link to a good album, the more likely it is that more people hear the good music.

and the deserving artist only gets I dunno how small a percentage of album sales

[azemkamikaze03]

so we are basically making those album sales smaller?

 

and what difference does the known factor make if no one is buy her album?

 

 

Look bands like Greenday, Kelly Clarkson, various hip hop rappers i could care less if we "steal" from them cuz they are gunna make millions none the less

 

but bands like say the ones stenners mentioned are only so "popular" half of them i have never heard of, or if i have its because some other music junkie told me about them. I'm positive these bands are not that popular and probably dont make as much sales as others and us denying to buy their albums for one shows that we could care less about them as a group and two shows that we as so called fans would rather be cheap and steal from them rather than help their cause and buy their stuff. why do u think holly brook is doing so bad? half her fans probably just downloaded her damn album. its the people who deserve it and need it who dont get it. seriously, i mean i know some people here are music artists and i know id be pissed as hell if people were downloading my shit and not even paying for one song on iTunes or anything. we hurt smalltime bands.

if u wanna rip somebody off do it to the mainstream. not to people who are just barely making it.
