The foursome known as American Authors are about to be much more than the soundtrack to Lowe’s commercials (where you might recognize their single “Best Day Of My Life”).
On The Other Side, Tonight Alive display a newfound maturity and confidence accumulated over the past two years. These twelve tracks of passionate, driven pop rock are guaranteed to launch the band onto an entirely new level of success.
Although the songs within the album lack some musical distinction from one another, The SpacePimps’ third studio release covers a lot of ground. Whether you’re in the mood for some emotional and hard-hitting lyrics, moshing and singing along to some quality pop-punk, or a bit of nostalgia, you’ll definitely find something to love about this album.
With Feel, Sleeping With Sirens achieve every band’s goal: releasing a new album that offers something fresh while still retaining the sound their fans fell in love with. Whether your preference is angst-driven metal or poignant pop, this album is sure to leave you feeling something.
Forever Halloween digs deep to unearth some serious human truths – and sounds appropriately mature doing so. The album boasts worldliness in comparison to The Maine’s earlier catalogue, and it’s evident from the authenticity of the collection how effectively the members have channeled their experience of growing up into their work.
With a sound that calls to mind the likes of The Black Keys, The White Stripes, and Kasabian, Orthodox is one of those records that is meant to be heard live in the middle of a rowdy crowd on a hot Saturday night in some too-cramped club.
While they have always been known as more of a pop band, rather than a rock band, this time around on Biography of Heartbreak, This Century strips away any rock or punk sensibilities they once had and go straight for the Top 40 pop sound.
The aptly-titled Renacer is most certainly a rebirth for Senses Fail. One of the heaviest albums of 2013, the record leaves behind only minor traces of the Senses Fail we all know and love.
Whether listeners vibe with the turn that A Rocket To The Moon have taken towards a pop impression on light country or prefer their youthful musings without a side of the South, the old sweetness of the band still sits evident just below the surface.
As their comeback album, Save Rock and Roll is probably one of the most important albums in Fall Out Boy’s career. They have evolved into a slick, complex powerhouse of a band, and they prove it by unleashing all their talent on this new album.
