Working Class Heroes - Agnostic Front

Advantages: A fun alternative and eclectic sounding album
Disadvantages: None

...A good album from gym class heroes released in 2007.I liked the sound and style this whole album had to offer.I feel that it was and still is very creative and alternative,it mixes r'n'b, hip hop and pop all together to create contageously catchy and distinctive sounding songs. I really liked alot of the songs used on this album from the chart ready track: clothes off to my favourite slow sounding track: On My Own Time (Write On!) The whole album was just enjoyable and fun to listen to. It took you through a wide variety of emotions and feelings which for me makes a good album. Definately one of my favourite albums of all times and definately something that I would highly recommend to anyone,you will not be disappointed with this album,it has a quirky and fun high school poppy sound that just makes it even better to listen to from...

Advantages: 15/18 tracks are amazing.
Disadvantages: A Couple of Poor Freestyling Tracks

...Having never heard of Gym Class Heroes until i saw them support Fall Out Boy in 2005, i was plesently surprised. Far from the 'emo rock' genre i would associated with Fall Out Boy, Gym Class Heroes offer a totally different type of music. I soon realised why they were picked up to support.

Disadvantages: Don't quite master styles which they experiment with

...said that I enjoyed lisnteing to Gym Class Heroes' Pop work, here they just take it too far, and when you are immediately annoyed by a song, you know its never going to work for you, and this is exactly how I felt when listening to this one. **One Star** 14. "Coming Clean" I liked the build-up in this one as it created a tense atmosphere with some big Hip hop beats and lots of little techniques which make it fit in with the trends of the genre today, however they undermine all the work they do in the verses by coming with a stupidly happy chorus which has the rift change into a Pop-Rock cut. **Three Stars** I was quite impressed by this release as I didn't really expect to get a lot out of this album which I could really say I enjoyed, however this wasn't the case at all. You have to understand that I am reviewing... Read review
