I understand why the lyrics are so lol now. Pedro the Lion It's Hard To Find A FriendRush Moving PicturesSilverstein Discovering the WaterfrontThis is an album, along with a handful of others, that helped me get into the kind of music I like today, eventually even leading me to like bands such as Opeth, In Flames, and most things in the spectrum of "heavy" music. Years later, this album is still a classic to me, and I love every song. Slayer Seasons in the AbyssThe Bouncing Souls How I Spent My Summer VacationThe Story So Far What You Don't SeeUnderoath They're Only Chasing SafetyWhy did I give this such a high rating? Firstly, Underoath is one of the bands that first got me into music with any sort of screaming. Secondly, after listening to this album fairly persistently the past 3 years or so, I still love it. Thirdly, while this isn't ground breaking material, it is all done top notch and works perfectly. 4.5 superbAerosmith Toys in the AtticAlice in Chains DirtAll Time Low Put Up or Shut UpThere honestly isn't much I can say to justify my rating on this disc. Pop punk is one of my favorite genres, and these guys definitely display some of the best of it on this album, in my opinion. Each song is infectious in it's own way. All Time Low So Wrong, It's RightAnamanaguchi AuroraAnimals As Leaders The Joy of MotionAugust Burns Red Found in Far Away PlacesBorn of Osiris The DiscoveryDefeater Empty Days and Sleepless NightsDeftones Diamond EyesElder Brother Heavy HeadGreen Day DookieThis was nearly a 5 for me. However, the tracks Coming Clean and F.O.D. ruined that. Outside of that, the rest of the album is extremely enjoyable.

I was right. I love most of this band's material. The only songs I've heard previously from this album were "Oh Well, Oh Well" and "Stay". This album is chock full of energy, as well as plenty of emotional charge throughout each song. "Stay", as well as a couple other tracks, lack some of the aforementioned energy, but have multitudes of emotional charge. In short, this album is basically for any fan of pop punk or anyone wanting to try broadening their listening horizons. After a couple listens, I may change my rating up to a 5.

One or two songs, other than the two aforementioned tracks, felt a little bland to me, but majority of the songs were easy to headbang or tap your foot to. Mudvayne Lost and FoundThe only negative thing I can think of about this album is the blandness of the guitar in most tracks. Bass is very good in this album though, as well as drums, and vocals majority of the time. This is a great album, but could be much better (mostly in the last few tracks of the album in parts.) This would easily receive a 4.25 if possible.

The Story So Far The Story So FarThe Wonder Years The UpsidesTrivium AscendancyTrophy Eyes Mend, Move OnTyler, the Creator WolfUnderoath The Changing of TimesUnderoath has a very special place in my heart. They were one of the first bands to get me into the "heavier" side of music. The first material I heard from Underoath was off of They're Only Chasing Safety. Then, I heard some stuff off of Cries Of The Past and Act Of Depression. And finally, I heard some stuff off of here. To this day, this album still contains some of my favorite Underoath songs, such as: When The Sun Sleeps, Alone In December, Never Meant To Break Your Heart, etc. I find this album to be the most emotionally charged Underoath record for the most part, my favorite with Dallas as vocalist, and one of my favorite Underoath records overall. Underoath Cries of the PastUnderoath fixed every mistake they made on Act Of Depression and released a very enjoyable album.

That doesn't mean this is necessarily bad, just nothing all that over the top great. Some of the lyrics are fairly bad, though. rOverall, none of the songs are bad in anyway, and majority of the songs you'll find yourself bobbing your head too, but you will not find technical prowess here. I See Stars 3DKanye West 808s and HeartbreakKillswitch Engage Killswitch Engage (2009)I enjoy most of the tracks on here. The same formula being used over and over does get tiresome after a while, though. Very few moments were refreshing. Outside of this, when listening to most of these songs randomly among others (i.e. not listening to the full album, having songs randomly come on through a shuffle on an iPod, or something), I enjoy them MUCH more. The material is good in my opinion, just slightly tiresome when listening to them all right in a row.Metallica ReloadI'm torn between a 2.5 and 3 for Load and Reload. They are equal to me In terms of quality, not bad, but definitely not great.

Granted, every song is about 6-10 minutes long, but that's still no excuse. Every time something interesting happens, something boring is there to counteract it eventually. However, I still find this to be a fairly solid effort. The only song that I think had no overly boring parts was "Watch Me Die", so if I were to recommend anything from this album, that song would be it. Whitechapel Our Endless War2.5 averageAsking Alexandria From Death to DestinyThis album in no way deserves all the 1s it has. No, this is nothing perfect, but it's a lot rbetter than what I expected from this band. They're getting better. Seriously though, the rfact that this is rated lower than Reckless and Relentless at the moment is just utterly rridiculous. That album was the epitome of bad. Avenged Sevenfold Sounding the Seventh TrumpetBreakdown of Sanity MirrorsI'm really not sure why this album is rated as high as it is. Holy breakdowns. This album is filled to the brim with breakdowns and god damn is it fucking annoying. There are a few interesting leads and drum sections here and there though. Bass is practically inaudible most of the time. Vocals are decent. This band could be really good if they would ditch the 5 breakdowns a song method. Redeeming Factors: The guitar solo on December, the instrumental track Mary, the instrumental track Jnana, and the guitar solo in Paralyzed.Children of Bodom Skeletons in the ClosetDevice DeviceEscape the Fate UngratefulFalling in Reverse The Drug in Me Is YouI liked this album a lot the first time I heard it when it came out. Now, while I don't dislike it, it definitely is not as good as I previously thought. There are some downright terrible lyrics and moments throughout the album, but there are some very good ones as well (well good songs/moments anyways, good lyrics aren't really found anywhere). Raised by Wolves is an awesome song, as is The Drug In Me Is You, I'm Not A Vampire, Sink Or Swim, Goodbye Graceful, and Don't Mess With Ouija Boards. Pick Up The Phone is a fairly solid track (don't understand the hate for it). Tragic Magic is unbelievably bad. Good Girls, Bad Guys is also pretty damn bad. Caught Like A Fly has a decent chorus, but everything else is bad. The Westerner is a meh track with an overly annoying "doo doo doo doo doo" singing part in the middle. One thing I just realized, some of the choruses sound fairly samey. Ex: The Drug In Me Is You and The Westerner. Overall, I'm tempted to give this album a 3.5 but I know that's just too high for this band and the effort into this album. The album is move of a 3.25 or slightly below. So, going with a 3. Edit: I get the hate for Pick Up The Phone now. Can't believe I contemplated giving this a 3.5 at one point. Bumped down to a 2.5 now.Five Finger Death Punch American CapitalistHawthorne Heights If Only You Were LonelyKid Rock Devil Without a CauseNickelback Silver Side UpOzzy Osbourne ScreamSix Feet Under 13Six Feet Under CommandmentThe main, maybe even only, problem with this album is Barnes' shoddy and unreliable vocal performance. There are a couple instances where it's decent, and other instances where it becomes cringe-worthy. With a better vocalist, this could easily be a 3-3.5Sleeping With Sirens Feelhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mwhDZNdtq00&list=PLKcGEIO7V0rUe2k26IEv6EgJNHUpWNvSw full album stream. This album is just really annoying or boring for the most part. Major disappointment. Recommended tracks: Here We Go, Free Now, and Satellites Suicide Silence The Black CrownTexas in July One RealityThe Devil Wears Prada Plagues2.0 poorBring Me The Horizon Suicide SeasonChelsea Grin Desolation Of EdenThis album is littered with fairly bad vocals and breakdowns. There are, however, some shining moments that show Chelsea Grin has potential. "The Human Condition", for example, has a handful of cool sounding parts in the song, such as the intro. "Elysium", an instrumental track, is very solid, up until the last 20 seconds, when a long, brooding breakdown commences. I'm also fairly fond of the song Recreant, despite the hatred it gets. Songs such as "Revenant", on the other hand, are just dreadful. Opening with a breakdown is never a good idea. Any positive moments of the song are quickly pushed aside by breakdown after breakdown. In conclusion, this is a fairly okay effort from Chelsea Grin, showing that among all of their weaknesses, are a few glimmers of hope. Chelsea Grin My DamnationMyChildren MyBride UnbreakableNickelback The Long RoadSimple Plan Still Not Getting Any...Suicide Silence The CleansingSuicide Silence No Time to BleedWe Came As Romans Tracing Back Roots1.5 very poorBullet For My Valentine Temper TemperThere are 3 tracks on this CD that I like a lot. Too bad, outside of those three tracks (P.O.W., Tears Don't Fall Part 2, and Living Life On The Edge Of A Knife), everything else is practically unbearable. From horrible vocals, atrocious lyrics, to being downright boring musically, this album is a huge step down from any of BFMV's other efforts. Fall Out Boy Save Rock and RollA song featuring Big Sean? Brilliant. NO.Can someone tell me how this band became such a piece of shit? I used to love these guys. Now they put out this mostly sugar coated mainstream pop crap? WHAT?! Hellyeah StampedeSix Feet Under Graveyard Classics1.0 awfulAsking Alexandria Reckless and RelentlessAdmittedly, there's one song on here I enjoy, and one that is pretty decent outside of the prior track. The rest of the content on here I can't even STAND in the slightest. The vocals on a large part of the songs are just atrocious, breakdowns are included in practically every single track, and many other horrible things. Falling in Reverse Fashionably LateThere are a few interesting ideas here, but nothing is pulled off. At all. Six Feet Under Graveyard Classics 2
