Free Music Notes for For the Birds
Free Music Review: ****1/2 - Looking for proven rock anthems? Look elsewhere
Hit: 4 Stars
I only recently learned of the Frames after hearing the song Dream Awake on an iTunes radio station. I just had to buy their latest album but somehow accidentally purchased their 2001 album Burn the Maps. I wasn't especially impressed on the first listen but now find this album has quite a few gems. (It's impossible to fairly judge an album with only one listening, especially in a car). Now I think For the Birds is a more complete album than their 2005 Burn the Maps, which is itself also a great album. For the Birds is more mellow and reflective whereas Burn the Maps ads a few more guitar and commercial undertones.Free Music Review: it's alright

Hit: 1 Stars
I purchase more cd's than the average person and listen to a wide varitey of music. Because of this, I generally give each new cd 3-5 listens before making or breaking. This one, I couldn't even get through once- it was slow, nothing catchy and ultimatly just boring. Free Music Review: awesome

When I first heard of The Frames, I was lucky enough to see them live last year opening for Damien Rice in Portland. And I was floored when the first song they played was "Friends and Foes." The power that song had still stays with me. Now one year later, and three albums of theirs later, they are still one of my favorite bands, and I was able to see them perform again almost exactly a year later. If you don't have this album, go get it! The vocals are great, the music is wonderful.Free Music Review: what was wrong with me?

the first time i listened to this i totally didn't dig it. needless to say that it's one of my favorites now. every song is sonically beautiful and the lyrics are strong. you can put this in no matter what kind of mood you are in and enjoy it. not a five star but certainly a 4.5. fyi - saw them live finally, believe the hype; best live band in music.
