My Score:

Listening to scenestein or a sensual hot carl. Which would you pick? Let's vote. Here's one vote for the hot carl.

doe sthe cover remind anyone else of Dag Nasty's "The Godfather"?

- JD

I don't know, from what I hear of this cd it didn't sound like a 6 maybe a 4. I find all the positive (okay a handful) comments sort of surprising and somehow refreshing.

- JD

the artwork looks like a children's book.
suits the music I guess

HERE TODAY
GONE TOMORROW !
DRIVE AWAY FROM THE PAST !

i've never been a fan of anything this band has put out
but this song rules

score for the song

My Score:

Yeah man, totally wouldrather take a vile dump then listen to this vile dump.

"IMHO Yellowcard CD's sell themselves once kids hear their music. I just want to pump up the readers of this site and get them down to the store!"

Disgusting.

Score is for internet selling.

Thanks for the insightful comment.

P.S. that's a joke ... haha

respect these guys for sticking to their guns, althoug the music can be a bit bland, really dont mind the last cd, althougni havent given this a solid listen yet, so i cant say much about it. i fuckin hated the new funeral for a friend because of the direction they took man that was gay.

I really wish someone would review the new august burns red or darkest hour though. Sum 41 is on tv defending the lyrics on their new cd, man their gay, anyone can write anti bush songs, what a afag

Reviews are dependent on reviewers submitting them and spaced allowed.

Why is there no new Darkest Hour review or new Mxpx review???

i think it probably would hurt this band to sound like operation ivy, that would be too off. some hot water music might be better.

My Score:

I don't care, I'd rather take a mushy hangover poo than listen to this garbage. Fuck Scenestein.

good and honest review. very mature! this record is really awesome the band totally legit!

name drop, like, talk about, ect.

Ahah, thank you Mr/Ms waffles!

It wouldn't hurt Silverstein to sound a little more like Op Ivy, ya know.

Listen to Botch instead.

"I feel the same way.
Even though I usually don't dig this shit, I've liked silverstein's last two records a lot. Does that make me gay?"

No, but your love of balls does.

" i read a review of their first album a long time ago that said silverstein pick up where grade left off, which i disagree with, but they're trying damn hard. someday, they'll get close enough to be good."

yeah i think i read that review too, and upon hearing silverstein, i realised how inaccurate that comparison is. and now everytime i've hear a song by these tits it breaks my heart that they're here and making 'music' and Grade arent.

Instead of buying this, the 14 year old demographic this band seems to have should all go out and buy what will undoubtedly be their first Grade record. May I reccomend "Seperate the Magnets"? or "Under the Radar"?? It's what Silverstein have been going for for years without ever really getting there.

It'd be like a Monkee's fan getting a copy of "The White Album".

when this guy tries to sing he sounds like a robot. but they worship grade almost as much as i do so therefore they have to be semi-cool dudes. i read a review of their first album a long time ago that said silverstein pick up where grade left off, which i disagree with, but they're trying damn hard. someday, they'll get close enough to be good.

considering the last good record Victory released was in 1997 (Progression Through Unlearning by Snapcase)

Okay, I can be a real douche bag sometimes, but come on.

IMHO Yellowcard CD's sell themselves once kids hear their music. I just want to pump up the readers of this site and get them down to the store!

Stop trying to sell Yellowcard cds you fucking loser.

It's not good. It's not that catchy either, but considering the last good record Victory released was in 1997 (Progression Through Unlearning by Snapcase) it's no surprise this is mediocre. Sure, these dudes have some legitimate indie and post hardcore influences (Knapsack, Small Brown Bike, Mineral) but saying they have emo influences is a stretch as the "emo" bands they cite were not really emo. Not a terrible album, but not good either. They will not be too concerned, as they are rolling in the cash. They are all vegetarian kids though, so good on them for that. Lyrics are nothing special.

When you are in the S section at Best Buy, ride the train on over to the Y's and pick up Yellowcard's CD, your ears will thank you!

i'd rather take the December Drive's Arrivals/Departures EP over this bullshit any day.

I feel the same way.
Even though I usually don't dig this shit, I've liked silverstein's last two records a lot. Does that make me gay?

Notice the "". But that's okay, you can totally miss the point, if you really want.

If you think Atreyu is 'screamo', you've been spending too much time on MTV.com

Saw them live a couple of years ago and they were actually really good, which is weird because every other screamo band I've had to sit through due to one circumstance or another has been pretty terrible.

"What does that mean? I'm not trying to criticise the reviewer's choice of words, I've just not heard that expression before."

name drop, like, talk about, ect.

"this shit is on victory = lame."

yeh thats true most of the time, except with honor's this is our revenge was released on victory

They jock all kinds of punk and emo classics, like Hot Water Music, Operation Ivy and Braid, yet have absolutely no sign of influence.

What does that mean? I'm not trying to criticise the reviewer's choice of words, I've just not heard that expression before.

forgot to throw in that the first line of the second paragraph also fit for the first time i listened to this

funny, that first line was thee exact same thinkg i thought after the second song

My Score:

i bought the album not really expectin it to be good. And i was sort of right. it had some good songs on there and other shitty ones. i think this band has the ability to put out an amazing cd. hopefully it will be there next one.

I absolutely love the first paragraph of this review. Great job.

-adam

I was planning on listening to this release after I have had a chance to enjoy Yellowcard's new release Paper Walls (which was released today July 17th, 2007 on Capitol Records) so knowing how AWESOME "Paper Walls" is, I've penciled in sometime into October that I can check this release out because I'm going to ONLY be listening to Yellowcard until then.

My Score:

silverstein's album artwork is always fairly awesome.
i have a soft sport for these guys since i'm from burlington.
for some reason though they never seem as lame as the other "screamo" bands.

this shit is on victory = lame.

I feel exactly the same way... And the STD reference is spot on, I thought the same thing about that song, but cant remember, which STD song it sounds like?
