well to be honest.. I didn't like the first album all that much except for a few songs. I find it all starts sounding the same. but this album is slightly better.. I find it has more meaning this time around even though the same sorta beat.
I admire the fact that this band wants to have a different sound! this time around I find it much more fascinating! I appreciate their songs a little more! well that and I spent $20 on this cd so I don't much choice. haha
it's far from perfect but it's worth a listen if you like this kinda music!
Can you honestly say that AVA has a very diverse sound? Can you honestly say that this album sounds different from the debut? Not to sound mean, but EVERYTHING Angels and Airwaves virtually sounds the same. Fortunate for them, the song that they were all based on, was a good freaking song that way we can appreciate all 20+ remakes of it. I mean even if you analyze the lyrics, they're all the same "Do you ever feel like...." "Have you ever felt like....." "Tomorrow could be the best day of your life...." "follow me, and I'll take you somewhere higher...." It's all the same, you can't deny it. I love AVA, but I love them enough to say that they need to expand a little.
Don't get me wrong, this cd is great. It is indeed a fantastic follow up to We Don't Need To Whisper. But HONESTLY???? THE BEST SONG ON HERE? Rite Of Spring. Undoubtedly. I think it's the best thing that AVA has written and it's certainly one of the top songs Tom has ever written. It is the ONLY song that sounds DIFFERENT. that has a DIFFERENT topic. Instead of trying to make you feel better about life (which is good don't get me wrong), Tom gets a little contemplative and takes the time to appreciate HIS life. Even the delayed guitar in the beginning sounds different.
Good album, but like everything AVA has written...it lacks Diversity.
