Christmas - Whispers (The)

Advantages: Average
Disadvantages: Read the list in my review!

..."We Don't Need To Whisper" is the debut Angels and Airwaves album. I went and bought this the day and came out after keeping up with all the hype and stories of Tom Delonge and Mark Hoppus. I had read the interviews with Tom Delonge and quotes such as "I have now reached musical perfection". I found myself disappointed.

Advantages: good sound very original
Disadvantages: not as good as the follow up.

...ANGELS AND AIRWAVES:WE DONT NEED TO WHISPER.., this is such a good album but i must admit its not as good as their second album I-Empire. their second album has more meaning than this one. but the songs are brilliant. the original bassist in this band was Ryan sinn but he left due to difficulties with rest of the band. the first song Valkyrie Missile:same as all angels and airwaves songs it takes at least 2 minutes to get this song going which is kind of annoying really then it starts with talking like people in a rocket then another further 50 seconds or so and the beat speeds up the drumming then gets faster and at last singing.

Advantages: Pop-Punk Supergroup's adventurous new album. Experimental sounds and catchy rhythms.
Disadvantages: Not completely unique, Tom Delonge's (Ex-Blink 182) voice dodgy in places

...When Blink 182 split-up many people expected boxcar racer to reunite. However when Tom Delonge announced Angels and Airwaves he also said that it was not another side project, this was his new band. The long awaited album "We don't need to whisper" by Ex-Blink 182 frontman Tom Delonge's new supergroup Angels & Airwaves, (AvA for short), can be described as experimental-pop-punk. With the usual power chords that people have come to expect from Delonge mixed in with fancy guitar riffs and special effects they create not a new genre, but one which combines the best from numerous ones. All of the songs on the album have a more melodic feel than that of Blink, but there again this is not Blink. Delonge has said numerous times that he wants to get away from the school-boy lyrics about sex and go for something that will make the world think... Read review
