Advantages: Some accomplished bits. Disadvantages: Screaming and samey drum beats.
In Flames - Come Clarity
Yet another of my 14 year old (next months) son's offerings which he insists 'You must listen to this dad'. This is by no means my longest review as I am not going to 'fill' when I have not much to say.
Wikipedia tell me that these are a Swedish melodic death metal band.....not a good start, however, being am open minded dad I thought I should give them a a go. Though I do fail to see how Death Metal can be melodic, ho, hum.
This album was released in 2006 and looking at the art work on the cover I kinda had a good idea what it might sound like. Best album in the Swedish Grammy awards, well there you go.

Track one "It's Only Love", is a great hit single but it's a slow start to this album. I love this song, especially the bit after the instrumental break.
Things speed up with the title track "A New Flame". I find the singing on the verses can be difficult to listen to; the lyrics are a little incomprehensible at times. However, I do ...
Advantages: Great new single Disadvantages: Sounds simalar to the bangles but isn't as good
I wrote this opinion roughly about a month ago now but didn't gain many reads from it, now this song has been released and has hit the number 1 spot in the UK beating Destinys Child I feel hopefully that I can get more reads! Thanks guys, carry on reading now......
To start off with, a question ~ Do you remember that great song by 'The Bangles' called 'Eternal Flame'? The slow catchy song that everyone listened to right at the end of the 80's!?
Well now Atomic Kitten have re-released this song. I heard the song on 'The box' a music television channel and I watched the video and thought it was fab. It's their brand new song off their NEW album too!!!
The album is going to be released very soon now, infact a few days away I think, it's called 'Right Now' and contains Atomic Kittens latest 2 releases that have both now hit the no ...
