Flashback Friday Album Review Vampire Weekend - Vampire Weekend (Self Titled)

Vampire Weekend - Vampire Weekend

Release Date: January 29 2008

Upon release people immediately noticed the creative sound of Vampire Weekend. With the classic sound of The Beatles and a creative and unique use of other instruments Vampire Weekend is a completely unique listening experience. There vocalist helps keep the music at a high energy level while there drummer plays a unique and fast style that keeps the tempo high. They use a lot of unique sounds that are not usually heard in music. There really is not much to say about Vampire Weekend other than go and listen to it now. I give this album 5 out of 5 drum sticks. 

Underoath - Disambiguation Album Review

                                                        Underoath - Disambiguation

 Underoaths new album Disambiguation is the follow album to there popular release, Lost In The Sound Of Seperation. With the departure of there drummer and vocalist Aaron Gillespie they recruited ex-Norma Jean drummer Daniel Davison. Daniel still holds the creative side of drumming that Aaron had but ushers in a more heavy sound. The opening song to the album "In Division" is exactly what fans have been waiting for, more of the unique heaviness that Underoath is famous for along with a new level of heavy that fans were yearning for. As the album continues there are more heavy tracks such as "Illuminator" but there is also slower songs like "Driftwood". The mix of songs keeps things in a very balanced state. The bass is very prominent in this album which definitely gives it a new and unique feel. In musical elements nothing is held back. It is a no holds barred barrage of your senses that will leave you yearning for more. None of the old Underoath is gone from this album, with Disambiguation we get more of the Underoath we know and love. I give this album 5 drum sticks out of 5

Music Review! A Day To Remember - What Separates Me From You

Hey all,

Just releasing yesterday A Day To Remembers newest album is their most ambitious yet. With heavier songs then they have had before this CD brings a new level of personal depth. This album really hits a personal level with head man Jeremy McKinnon. Many of the songs are about his personal life. With heavy tracks such as "Sticks And Bricks" and "2nd Sucks" they really bring in hardcore fans. But just like other albums they still have a large chunk of Fall Out Boy like songs. The combination of Pop and Metalcore is what A Day to Remember is famous for and this CD has it in handfuls. The whole band has definitely matured musically and it is heard almost immediately whether its the much improved vocals or the hard hitting guitar. After having such a popular CD like their previous album Homesick its hard to improve on such a great album, which they did.
I give this album 5 drum sticks out of 5!
(get it "drum sticks" xD)
