Free Music Notes for Out of the Vein [Limited Edition w/ Bonus DVD]

Free Music Review: possibly their best
Hit: 5 Stars

Though I am a definite 3eb fan, I was not unduly impressed by the prerelease music and lyrics I saw for this record. I thought the lyrics were comparitively weak and the music was run-of-the-mill. Nonetheless, based on precedent I decided to buy it...and as it turns out, I'm glad I did. Some of the lyrics really are not as good (only because they repeat themes similar to what Jenkins has written in the past), but others are amazing, though you have to hear them sung before you'll understand. I especially love the last verse of "Blinded" ("Icarus is not a t-shirt or a swan song, no, he is born again, and it's not easy being me, but i can't promise i will mend, or bend when you believe that we are fixed now from our birth, and i've just fallen back to earth") and the phrase "unbodied, unsouled, unheard, unseen" from "Wake For Young Souls". As for the music; well, some of the songs are not that great. I'll review each one rather than trying for an overview.

1.Faster- Mostly average pop, will probably get boring with repeated listens; however, it has an awesome powerhouse chorus and ending. 8/10 right now, but it may decrease with time.
2.Blinded- Starts off sounding like an attempted remake of other 3eb songs, but gets stronger as it goes and by the end is one of the best on the album. 9/10.
3.Forget Myself- A great song, instant classic; it reminds you strongly of their previous stuff and yet is fresh and new. Cool guitars and production. 10/10 (really 9.5 because no song is pefect, but it's pretty much as good as it could be).
4.Danger- Good lyrics, title; a decent clever pop song all around, but it also has the best middle eight I have ever heard. 9/10.
5.Crystal Baller- Great song, but it doesn't really do much for me personally, I don't know why. Plentiful interesting sounds. 9/10.
6.My Hit and Run- Beautiful. Trippy, superb drumming, truly wicked guitar playing, and a classic melody that improves with repition. 10/10.
7.Misfits- I don't much like this one. The Fred Durst influence is too apparent, and the melody and lyrics don't quite come up to Jenkins' usual work. 6/10 (would be worse if not for the vocal refrain and bridge, which rock).
8.Can't Get Away- Instant classic. Fairly simple song, but it has a lovely and bittersweet mood. 9/10.
9.Wake For Young Souls- Catchy, but not the greatest. It wears out quickly although the lyrics are very good. Sounds to me like they tried to cram too many diverse ideas into one song. 8/10.
10.Palm Reader- Very good, creative and unpredictable song, grows on you with time. The "breaking" vocal technique on the second verse is beautiful, as is the chorus, and the raunchy part is out there and way cool. 9/10.
11.Self Righteous- Sweetly sad; the female voice is strange but fits well with this sparse, wistful song. It does go on a bit long though. 8.8/10
12.Company- Awesome pop song filled with changes and consistently great melodies. Possibly my favorite. 10/10.

13.Good Man- Nice, but less spectacular than some. Lots of guitars. 8.5/10.
14.Another Life (unlisted track) The verses get slightly annoying with their urban style, but the incredible chorus and bridge make up for it. This song is wrenchingly beautiful, bittersweet and longing. It is a much better closing track than "Good Man" and I am very happy they tacked it on at the end.
Well, I guess that about sums it up. I highly recommend this album, especially for anyone who liked the stirring and complex style of Blue better than the self-titled record. This album is like that, only it has a raw beauty as well; in a sense it's like their first two combined. And one last note: Friedanelli may not be as creative as Kevin Cadogan was, but he sure can play nonetheless.

Out of the Vein [Limited Edition w/ Bonus DVD] Poster

Highly anticipated third album. Elektra. 2003.
Perhaps Third Eye Blind should have titled their third album "Same Vein," since the record offers more of what put the San Francisco band on the map--brainy stream-of-conscious lyrics, big choruses, chunky fretwork, and a liberal dose of sexual innuendo. Frontman Stephan Jenkins engages in some artistic bloodletting here, opening a vein and allowing all the anguish he's experienced over the last few years to spill into these songs. Twelve of the 14 compositions find Jenkins recounting his messy breakup with South African actress Charlize Theron. He veers from attempting to lure her back with facile wordplay and exhaustive sexual promises to being haunted by her cover-girl face every time he passes a newsstand. He even conjures her face before he hits the pavement on "My Hit and Run," which chronicles a motorcycle accident. To his credit, Jenkins is much more interesting a songwriter when he's wounded, offering candor that's not evident on TEB's first two discs. --Jaan Uhelszki
