Free Music Review: I hate being let down by albums
Hit: 2 Stars
I've been a fan of AF since I was a wee 8th grader. I have every album, I've seen them every time they've been in philly (over 10 times). I'm not trying to brag, I just want to lend some perspective on my review. Anti-Flag has been my favorite band for over ten years, but now I feel let down. I was so excited for this cd. I was completely cool with them signing to RCA and I really do like For Blood and Empire. Then they had the Victims of Violent Crime ep, which was also awesome. So I figured, "hey, the next one has got to be great." Unfortunately, this is not the case.
The songs are not only overly long, they have no imagination. There are seemingly no verses in some songs. I feel like they just wrote a few chords, threw a terrible chorus over it and called it a song. "vices" looks like someone just hit copy and paste four (million) times.
We all have our vices
we all have our flaws
we all have our anger
we all have our love
There must have been a deadline or something because this album feels totally rushed. And really, I love when bands throw in new instruments and stuff, but they just don't work here. The guitars are lacking to the point where I'm sitting there aurally searching for riffs and hooks.
Obviously im very disappointed and I hope they go back to being anti-flag. I would seriously be surprised if radio junkies actually liked this. I hate having cds that let me down, cuz its like, what am I going to do with this? I could sell it, but that still wont erase the memories, only a new cd could. TAKE YOUR TIME AF! MAKE A GOOD ALBUM!
The Bright Lights of America Poster
Legendary political punks release their finest politically and socially charged album to date. Politico-punk icons Anti-Flag return in 2008 with the Bright Lights Of America, their seventh album to date and the follow-up to the critically acclaimed RCA debut For Blood And Empire. Produced by the legendary Tony Visconti, this album marks Tony's first collaboration with a punk rock artist to date. The result is Anti-Flag's most accomplished and diverse work thus far. The sound and stance of this album will shatter all expectations about Anti-Flag.Alternative Rock Music CDs
