Jonas Brothers Jonas Brothers
I feel like they should relable this album 'Nick Jonas & Co.' because despite the fact Joe Jonas is listed as the lead vocalist, Nick seems to sometimes do more of the sings, WHILE he plays guitar, unlike Joe, though Joe does play a mean tamborine!
I dont know what the other one does, who cares about him anyways.
The album begins with the song S.O.S which like the rest of the album, has a nice, skweaky 3 part harmony to go with it.
But seriously to get down to buissness. Best songs on the album if I had to pick would have to be Goodnight & Goodbye and When you Look me in the eyes. The rest are either subpar or

Metro Station Metro Station
After doing my research and listening to the CD, i cant help but realize that the bands first tracks in the album are the semi hit sub par type, the type you hear on the radio sometimes and think, ehh. Or the kind thats not quite top 20 material. But as the album grows on so does your agitation. The last songs are a excuse to finish the album and make it full length. Its like when they ran out of ideas they gave Hannah Montana the idea of finishing the Album. 'Nuff said.
The bands creators Mason and Trace met on the set of the Disney channel fave, Hannah Montana (they are the siblings of B-listers Mitchell Musso and Miley Cyrus)

Owl City Ocean Eyes
Owl City (or Adam Young) 's latest full length album Ocean Eyes is to hidden behind the fluffy, over articulate, and strange lyrics for anyone to notice how talented Adam Young really is. To arange music in the way he does is takes a hell of a lot of talent.
But seriously. The lyrics take an above average arrangement and album and turn it into a average, if not slightly below average album. Sometimes its so sweet it hurts.
Don't get me wrong, the album has its moments, like Hello Seattle or Vannila Twilight, but seriously, only this guy could write a 3 minute song about..going to the dentist..like really? How in gods

Allstar Weekend Suddenly
I can't quite decide what to think of this group. Its clear they want to be more grown up then their fellow label mates such as the Jonas Brothers or Aly & AJ. They succeed at some points but the album also has weaknesses.
First some history: They opened for the Jonas Brothers in some concert thing and got notest by the Brothers label, Hollywood Records. A year later, they brought out their first studio album. Though not full length it has strong points. But unfotunately, they sink down to Jonas worthy level.
The band's 7 track EP has a good start with Hey Princess, A Different Side of Me and Dance Forever, though in

Coldplay Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends
Usually if I was reviewing Coldplay, I'd have to go to Shoppers Drugmart first for anti depresants. To get through the first song. This album though, coming from the veteran depressers, is actually OK! Sure it has some depressing moments, and don't let that stop you from the taking odd trip to Shoppers Drugmart.
The opening track 'Life in Technicolor' is pretty good, and the album continues on its seemingly (for coldplay) merry, only semi depressing road.
But Seriously. Highlight songs. Life in Technicolor, Viva la Vida, Violet Hill, Strawberry Swing and Lovers in Japan. The rest of the tracks are good, and

The Beatles Abbey Road
Found this album on a shelf and listened to every track thinking how I would review it. Seeing as the original came in 1969, its been a while since the release, let alone since there were 4 Beatles.
The Beatles, half dead or not, were the Jonas Brothers of the 60's. Of course, a much more talented version, and a version that the male gender actually enjoyed listening to.
The album Opens up with my favorite Beatles song, Come Together. The catchy song made me even more optimistic about the rest, especially when I had just heard Coldplay on the radio.
The best songs on this album would have to be Come Together, OH! D
