Beautiful Lies - Sweethearts Of The Rodeo

Advantages: Good album
Disadvantages: some not so good songs

...but wasn't really a success with mixed reviews and didn't lead to much publicity. As much as their second album. Their second album Tilted "A beautiful Lie" was realised in august 2005 and was a big success in the rock world giving them a MTV2 award for a track of the album at the MTV music awards. The album has also reached Platinum for selling over 1 million copies. THE ALBUM 'A BEAUTIFAL LIE': 1st song Attack: Starting of with electronics then leading in vocals followed by the guitar bass and most noticeable drums but not so loud but gets harder during the chorus.
