Free Music Notes for Watch Out
Free Music Review: Screamo/emocore record of the year in my opinion
Hit: 5 Stars
Alexisonfire's second full length appropriately titled "Watch Out" has turned a lot of people's heads. It's also created some fan backlash with the dreaded term "sell out". I really don't understand how you can listen to this album and say the AOF has sold out, especially in you're a fan of the debut. "Watch Out" takes the sound AOF developed on their debut, and totally destroys all barriers in their. Yea there's more melody, but the melody is what helps to make this album even better. I find that everytime I listen to this one I begin to love it even more and more. I don't see how anyone couldn't.
The guitar playing on this record is just phenominal, and just as complicated and astonishing their self titled. The opening riff on "Accidents" alone is enough to show you what this album has to offer. Speaking of "Accidents", which happens to be one of the best songs on the cd, there's no better way to open the cd. While I still think "44 Calibur Love Letter" is the best AOF song, I thought it was an odd one to open up their self-titled. "Accidents" is a perfect opener. Much along the lines of "Accidents", are songs like "Hey it's your funeral Mama" and "That Girl Posesed", which take AOF use of melody and screaming to great heights. The whole album isn't just a screamo bombardment however, as AOF changes it up and releases masterpieces on us like "It Was Fear of Myself That Made Me Odd", "Side Walk When She Walks", and "Sharks and Danger" which help to give the album greater depth and even more time in your cd player. The album is just a great journey all the way through, and one that you won't quickly get tired of, especially if you like screamo or emocore. The increased use of the melody only helps the music in my opinion, and proves that AOF is very capable of being the prominent band in their scene. They also do different things with the melody than just "scream the verse, sing the chorus" like a lot of other bands are doing. Instead George and Dallas both seem like vocalists, not one backing the other in places. It's a very good trade off type style that AOF has perfected and I hope they continue to explore on future releases.
Oh yea and just to make sure, their name is pronounced Alexis-on-fire. Some people may get confused because it's all one word. If you like screamo or any of the other similar genres, then this record is for you. I do think it's the best screamo/emocore record of the year narrowly beating Underoath's "They're Only Chasing Safety". Good thing Saosin's highly anticipated full length didn't come out this year, I don't know what I'd do. I hope I can catch these guys live some time soon, because they're as equally amazing live, and have an energetic live show. Definitely one of 2004's overall best records. Looks like you better "Watch Out" for Alexisonfire.
