Earthman Supersmell - Alabama Kids

Advantages: good to chill out to
Disadvantages: not everyones cup of tea

...This album is really good... For someone who is into a lot of rock and metal etc. this is a really good chill out album. The songs are all really catchy, believe me you'll catch yourself singing it all the time. In my opinion this is Alabama3's best album although i was surprised it didn't get the hype i thought it would with the soprano's theme tune. You'll either love or hate this album, i let some of my friends listen to it as they were going to be a T in the park but they didn't appreciate it (but then again they mostly like pop and rap) I think good advice for this album would be to download a song such as "too sick to pray" or "woke up this morning" before you buy it. if you like these then i'm sure you would like the rest....

All emotive, heartfelt songs, cleverly disguised with upbeat and sometimes anthemic tunes that could get you dancing. It's easy to overlook MCR as just another rock band aimed at all the "emo-kids", but "The Black Parade" highlights how talented they are, right from Gerard Way's intelligent and heartfelt lyrics, to music that sounds like it's inspired by great bands such as Queen and The Doors (The verses in "Mama" being reminiscent of "Alabama Song" for me). Not just and album... Read review
