Free Music Notes for LifehouseFree Music Review: Amazing new CD Hit: 5 Stars
A week after buying this album, it's still in my CD player. Although I do think it takes a few listens to really grow on you, once you become familiar with the songs, this CD is exceptional. The first three songs, "Come Back Down," "You and Me," and "Blind" are some of the best on the CD in my opinion, and, with their catchy hooks and radio appeal, are natural choices for singles. Two more songs that I have grown to love are "All in All" and "Chapter One," both with a slightly different feel to them, but surprisingly appealing. They are both fun, light, and have similar positive messages. One of my favorite songs on the album is "Better Luck Next Time," such a powerful song with really incredible vocals. "Days Go By," "Undone," and "We'll Never Know" are also potential singles with upbeat, catchy choruses. Some of the more mellow songs on the album, like "Into the Sun" or "Walking Away," aren't my type of song, but are still amazingly done. The last song on the CD is "The End Has Only Begun," and, while not one of my favorites, it's a good song to end the album with.
To anyone considering buying this CD, I would definitely recommend it. Even if you don't like every single song, chances are you will love most of it, and many of the songs will begin to grow on you after two or three listens. This CD is not quite as amazing as "No Name Face," the band's first album, but it contains some of their best songs yet. "Lifehouse" is a fantastic follow-up from an incredible band.
Free Music Review: Lifehouse At Their Best Hit: 5 Stars
Lifehouse pulled out all the stops on their self-titled third album. The young men in this band, Jason Wade-vocals and guitars, Rick Woolstenhulme Jr.-drums and percussion, and Bryce Soderberg-bass and background vocals, put in all they had and came out with a brilliant mix of beautiful ballads, and toe tapping up-tempo songs. On this album Lifehouse slipped back into the sound of their first album No Name Face. The band has once again returned to their easy listening, mellow and purely enjoyable sound, a sound that was replaced by a harder more rock edge on their second album, Stanley Climbfall. Fans who are looking for that edgier sound will still find traces of it in songs like, "Days Go By" and "Blind", which both hold guitar and drum heavy choruses. However, if you're looking for thier smooth and relaxing music you'll definitley find it on this album. "Into The Sun", "All In All", and "Walking Away" all showcase Lifehouse at their best, stripped down to acoustic guitars and focusing on their one of a kind genuine writing ability. Jason once again proves he can sing and write like it's nobody's business. This album is sure to hold more than one hit for this band. The first single, "You and Me", has already climbed to number five on the Billboard Hot 100 list. Songs like "Days Go By" and "Into The Sun" are sure to please long time fans of Lifehouse and, there is no doubt in my mind this album will introduce new listeners to Lifehouse who will become fans immediately.
Free Music Review: Another AWESOME Album from my FAVORITE BAND! Hit: 5 Stars
What can I say about Lifehouse that other Lifehouse fan's don't already know? Not much! These guys are the very best band out there today & all of their music rocks! I love everything about this band, I love everything about this album!
This band is universally appealing to everyone, the music is wonderfully written & played & the lead singer Jason Wade has the most radio friendly voice out there today. Their songs are creative & fantastically executed & there isn't anything I don't love about them or their music.
I give this a 5 star rating all the way & HIGHLY reccomend you listen to their other albums Stanley Climbfall & No Name Face. They are both as good as this one & you will love them all. Standout songs on Stanley Climbfall are - " Just Another Name" w/ it's rocking riffs, "Stanley Climbfall" & "Take Me Away".
Standouts on No Name Face are - "Sick Cycle Carousel", (the very best track on that album in my opinion),"Only One", "Breathing" & the much radio played "Hanging By A Moment" featuring Jason Wade's vocal talents at their best. His voice is very unique & distinct & set's many hearts a flutter when he opens his mouth as well as setting him apart from all other lead singers out there today.
Lifehouse is definately the best band out right now w/ consistantly great songs being made & released & I look forward to hearing many more albums from them in the future, I can't wait for more!
Free Music Review: Lifehouse Produces Another Hit CD Hit: 5 Stars
On March 22, 2005 I headed straight for Wal-mart to buy the new Lifehouse CD. First listening to it, I didn't know what to expect. Their first two albums 'No Name Face' and 'Stanley Climbfall' both possessed different sounds, and I knew I couldn't predict how this one would differ. Even after listening to it once, I still didn't know how I felt about it. I listened to it a few more times and absolutely fell in love with it, and remembered that I also had to get used to their other two albums. Now it's all that I listen to and I even got a second copy so I could have one in my car and leave one in the house.
Lifehouse introduces some new sounds, even some country in intro of the song 'Days Go By.' Not enough to bother me, luckily. It's a nice sound. My favorite song on the album is 'We'll Never Know.'
Once again, Wade shows off his incredible lyric-writing abilities along with great melodies, and all of the songs are great to sing along to.
Wade once said that Lifehouse's first album was about knowing where you are at, not being happy about it, but not knowing how to move on. The second album, he added, is about knowing how to move on and beginning to. I feel as though this third album is a continuation of that journey, and in a way is at the end. It seems as though it's about being exactly where you want to be, and even helping others up from that place that you had been once.
Mmm...touche...
Free Music Review: An awesome Album Hit: 5 Stars
It's not what I expected out of Lifehouse, but the sound of their music is very well done. I like all the songs in their albums as well as all of the songs from their previous albums. Come Back Down has the tight drum introduction that lures you into the song. You and Me, everybody's favorite song has the tight acoustic guitar introduction that makes the song more powerful. Blind, maybe arguably the best song on the album, could be a number one hit, like "You and Me." "All In All," is a lot like Y&M with the acoustic guitar except it's a power-chord type song. Nothing wrong with that, but excellent none the less. Better Luck Next Time, has the same intensity when you listen to Hanging by a Moment. Days go by is the same song from the movie, "Win a date with Tad Hamilton." The song has changed from a soft sounded type song, to a old-school type song. That makes it so better. Into the Sun, is a slow song where you just want to lie down and relax a bit. Undone, kind of makes you want to run on the treadmill for some odd reason. It gets you pumped up. Hey, it's just my opinion. We'll Never Know, has the tight string introduction and has the Quasimodo type feeling in the song. Walking Away, seems to be a sad song, but a very good song. Chapter One is tight because it has the Piano introduction, very classy. Finally, the end has only begun, it works well as the last song of the album. You'll see why, when you purchase the album.
