Review Summary: Very,very,very,very,bad Imagine the most attractive woman you've ever seen, but as a siren. Every curve perfectly rounded, voice as smooth as silk, smile that would melt you, hair you would die to smell, full, luscious lips, etc. Imagine her in whatever form you want too (I'm 16 and single, yeah, I think like this). Get really involved in your daydreaming. Now, imagine her head getting cut off, and her beautiful body graying to dust. And to think, she was about to do anything you wanted to you. That's pretty much the equivalent of the disappointment that is Swan Song. At no point all record will you, the listener, be surprised. Whether it's the braggadocio filled "Undead", auto-tuned, fake as hell party tracks like "California" and "No Other Place", or the ridiculous, Hallmark-card dripping attempts at being socially conscious ("Young", "This Love, This Hate"), SS has all those things you probably hate. The moods on the album are so contradictory as well, but more for that in the lyrics section. Apparently, the whole group delivers vocals (according to the almighty Wikipedia), but it's only really possible to hear two, maybe three. You have Gangsta Teen, whom handles the raps, Mr.Br00tal, the "screamer", and Hoe's Love Me, the singer. Do any of them portray talent? No, they're just annoying. As for the rest of the band, I'm not really sure if they were too busy getting stoned or having sex to actually put effort into practice. There's a guitarist, I think, and he displays a fantastic proficiency for constant 1's and 0's. Like that's it, I'm pretty sure he just open chugs the way through the record. The drummer sounds like a drum machine, the bassist is slightly better, but not much.
There really aren't any standouts, just songs that are more tolerable than others. "Sell Your Soul" and "Undead" are half-listenable, mainly just because of the inkling of true energy they mange to put out, as well as the only decent drum performance all record on "Sell Your Soul". Yeah, that's really it. Lyrically, it's even worse. Look, either admit to recklessly partying, or admit you've screwed up your life, but for God's sakes, don't do both. The band goes from praising drugs, girls, and alcohol to lamenting about their addictions, making the record lose any lyrical believability or credibility.
Well, I'm honestly not sure how this got through a record label. I'm not sure how this was sold in stores (maybe it was for three bucks, y'all). I don't care. It's bad, very, very, very bad. Reverse HWU's on joke on them, and give this the finger. Un-freaking-believable.

this could a little bit more proof reading tbh.
| | | Could also use some tuning. Italicize lyric snippets and break them in between paragraphs and italicize song titles.

There are certain kinds of people, potentially stereotypes, that would truly enjoy Swan Songs. The first is "gangsta kids" who still wanna rap and sound tough, but still party and have fun, you know, basically the entire reason for crunkcore. The second is prep kids who want to say they listen to heavy music, but still want to look cool with their other prep kids and not listen to "metal"(this is a general term, for the love of God don't jump on my back). Finally, there's the "street kids" who will "cap you" if you "f- with them". That's about it, nobody within their sanity would willingly listen to this murderous project.

Sincerest apologies for the quality of the review, everyone, but I'm glad you enjoyed it Psy.
| | | come on man, at least stand by your review. it's not even that bad, the analogies have just narked a lot of people
| | | Yeah, if youre so unsure about your reviews try to get them proofread before submitting them. It saves you a lot of woe.
| | | This album has too many reviews with decent ratings so I for one am glad it's got a new bashing review, thank you for that.
| | | this album really isn't bad tbh
| | | Album Rating: 1.5
oh well thanks tuna, clover, and psynuts! That helps a ton, I don't mind criticism, as long as you tell me why. I was a little out of my element with this album, but I wanted to try something different for a change. The analogies were pretty bad, but I feel the rest of it could've been much worse.
| | | "damn acad, you like it that much?"
No this is just how he rates(most of the time), if he likes it, it's a 5. If he doesn't, it's a 1
