HelloGoodbye - HelloGoodbye

Hellogoodbye are actually an amazing band - I wasn't sure whether they were going to be up to much, having read a variety of reviews and finding a fairly mixed reaction to this EP. Hellogoodbye are a band that heavily emphasise the keyboards in there music. This is great as it makes them sound like a cross between 80s synth pop and modern day Pop Punk/Emo. This is a genius mix and in doing this, the band have produced an EP that oozes fun and energy, ...
...unashamedly cheesy and are a band that is showing clear signs of living for the moment and having fun while they can. This EP consists of 6 of the greatest songs that I have heard for a long time and the band really do impress with this debut EP. It pushes all the right buttons and I can assure you - if you played this at a party, everyone would be up and dancing, it really is that amazingly fun and effortlessly catchy. There is never a dull moment ...

Review of HelloGoodbye - HelloGoodbye

...item and heres why... Hellogoodbye have recently signed a huge new record deal with sony. Nothing has changed about them as a band but signing with Sony gives them the opportunity to get big, something they was unable to do under the limited financial support of Drive Thru records. And getting big is exactly what they are doing right now with air play on Radio 1, and probably light to medium rotation on MTV and other music video channels. The album ...
...an album. Every track on Hellogoodbye however has a different structure, a bridge where you might not expect one will work together for a very pleasing sound. the album will offer something from relaxing chill out music to music for getting you in the mod for partying. Even the simple yet effective cartoon graphics for their album cover, seem almost innocent whilst still standing out amongst a shelf of other cd's helps to create a squeaky clean image ...

Review of HelloGoodbye - HelloGoodbye

When I first heard this band, I was a bit confused. I was tuned into Last.FM radio and listening to similar artists to Fall Out Boy, and one of the tracks from this EP came on. What I heard was some strange mix of rock, dance and pop, and I wasn't sure what to think. But I gave it a listen and by the end, I realised I quite liked it. So I decided to buy the EP, being that it was quite cheap. Well, the strange music mix carried out throughout the ...
...which isn't the best way to start off, as it was a little forgettable. But the second track, "Call n' Return", more than makes up for that. It's a pretty short song, at just over 2 minutes long, but it sums up this band's unique style perfectly - quick bursts of dance-rock-pop that bring a smile to your face. Track 4, "Jesse Buy Nothing... Go to Prom Anyways", is a little, well, louder than the rest of the CD, but it's also one of my favourite tracks, ...

Hellogoodbye are part of a new wave of music taking a mix of electronic and pop and getting in on the rock scene. It is a different type of music that is accepted by some people and outcasted by others. This EP is what made Hellogoodbye big. This has helped launch the success of the new album Zombies! Aliens! Vampires! Dinosaurs! which has made them internationally known. This is definitely an original genre of music for music lovers to appreciate. ...

Review of HelloGoodbye - HelloGoodbye

I have read vaired reviews on this band, both negative and positive. But this band is amazing. They have their own unique sound. They're not afraid to experiment and this album shows you that. They've tried out all different genres and taken chances. Not all the songs are good but they have quite a few amazing ones for example, Here (in your arms), Touchdown Turnaround and Shimmy Shimmy Quarter Turn. The instruments give the songs their own unique ...
