album review 6

atreyu: a death grip on yesterday

synopsis: another favorite of mine the emo/ metal band atreyu is back with thier follow up to 2004's the curse.

review: the metal/ emo duet are back and this time atreyu has added a new bag of tricks as well as stickin to thier old ones. atreyu has thier metal barking frontman singing more in a duet with thier emo singin drummer as well as having thier frontman due emo vocals himself which is very well done. and adds value to the song and makes them more enjoyable. their guitarists have definatly have gotten better and can now play tough parts without problem.

the biggest tracks on this album are shameful, ex's and oh's and thier first slow song the theft which has more emo then metal and is extremely well done and executed perfectly and are great songs to listen to over and over again the rest of the album is stellar except for its mediocore finishing song untilted finale. their bonus cd has a episode of victory tv and a 30 minute studio interview with the band.

overall atreyu's has made some minor changes for the better and have made one hell of an album. and i highly recommend it.

silverstein : discovering the waterfront

synopsis: my favorite band's follow up to smash hit of 2003's when broken is easily fixed

review: what can i say this album is great!!!!! silverstein really nails it this time. shane's mix of emo/ metal is balanced during every song however in some of the tracks he relies to much on metal and little on the emo. with tracks like "smile in your sleep", "your sword versus my dagger" "discovering the waterfront" and "call it karma" u will keep hitting the replay button on your sterio forever. the rest of the sons are also well done with the acception of a few.

shane's wailing still seems to amaze me. the rest of the music is definately well done and catchy and will have u hummong along to the song the album also includes a bonus dvd filled with live performances, the making of the music video, audio commentary on the music videos smashed to pieces and giving up.............and much much more.

overall silverstein has produced a great album that doesnt due much to change the face of emo rock but its still very well done and i can recommend it to any one with a passion for the new rock or the emotional hardcore rock movement.
