GOOD STUFFi think this cd is great . . . i like the old good charlotte more than the newer version they've become . . . great cd.
HAS TO BE THE WORST BLACK METAL ALBUM OF ALL TIME
AC/DC are BLACK METAL. Ok kids stop telling me this is BLACK METAL this is FREAKIN NOT Black Metal. Seriously if the devil heard this he would Torture all you emo kids. Seriously dont tell me this is BLACK METAL.
Umm... Good Album, My review+a little ranting on the side
This album has got to be one of my favorites because of songs like the "The Anthem", "Lifestyles of the Rich & Famous", "Girls & Boys", "Hold On", and "The Young and Hopeless". Why does everyone seem to utterly despise this band, even though a lot of their songs have made it to the top twenty on charts (think "Dance Floor Anthem")
To me, it makes absolutely no sense! Personally, i think this band is totally awesome! Of course it's not really punk, it's more of a psuedo-punk/pop/sort of angst genre of its own.
This is a really good band for fans of Paramore, and stuff like that. . .
.
So I borrowed this between summer and fall of '05...
Just not great. And it was decent.
The singles ALL stand out, HOLD ON being my favorite song by them EVER!!!
It's very uplifting and it's a midtempo that gives hope. I know there were TONS of kids who listened to this & decided to keep on one more day and to say, "F*** You" to giving up! I respect that about Good Charlotte; once in a while, they are good at making a hit that means something. Not always does this happen though.
There are a few throwaway tracks but overall, this CD is rather listen-able.
I don't necessarily want to buy it or anything but if someone else had it I'd surely jump at the chance to hear it once again!
Cover Art: A++ (America and the media was a bit hectic at the time. So I love the cover art).
Inside Art: ? (Don't remember it much)
Songwriting: C+ (A+ for Hold On)
Vocals: D (whiny, yet strangely like-able)
Vocal Emotion: C-
Vocal Acrobatics: F
Production: C
Length: A
3. 3 stars.
Overall: C-.
