Free Music Notes for Can't Slow Down

Free Music Review: The best Saves the Day release. Period
Hit: 5 Stars

No other way to put it, really. This is what the band encapsulated. While they are growing up and experimenting with more melodic tendencies, the band gained it's rabid cult following through an aggressive yet emotional brand of typical punk rock. While Through Being Cool had a modest hit with "Shoulder to the Wheel" and was immensely popular, Can't Slow Down is a perfect and overwhelming example of everything that the band initially stood for.

Combining Chris' most powerful lyrics to date and the most aggressive and powerful songwriting of any of their releases, Can't Slow Down is a staple of the emo-punk trend that has been sweeping across the country. Chris' normally viceral and corporeal lyrics are at his teenage best, combining his heartbreak with his idealistic dreams, his impassioned callings and disappointed stories to create a perfect picture of his life at the time. Ted and David's guitar riffing take the typical modern-punk level and are integral to the emotional ferocity of the CD, and the early stages of the Eben and Bryan rhythm section are in solid roots. Technique and musically, this might be their most complete album, even if it is their most juvenile.

As Saves the Day expands their fanbase across the country, this CD will always be a hallmark of their sound and, in my opinion, their strongest and most powerful release ever. Songs like "Jodie," "The Choke," and "Sometimes, New Jersey" are proof of that, staples of their live set and just increadible songs for such a young band.

In short, if you're just getting into Saves the Day, I would recommend this CD over the newer ones in an instant. It's essential for even the casual fan.
