Taking Back Sunday-Louder Now Review

Band Name: Taking Back Sunday
Album Name: Louder Now
Overall Genre: Punk/Rock/Emo
Release Year: 2006

Tracklisting:
01. "What's it Feel Like to Be a Ghost?"(B+)

11. "I'll Let You Live"(A)

Pros:The overall talent of the band is absolutely positively amazing; Adam's emo/screamo voice is perfect; the guitar work by the band is very catchy and the two players are a very talented duo; no negative lyrics with the exception of what's said in cons;

Cons: The constant usage of taking the Lord's name in vain(on such tracks as "What's It Feel Like to Be a Ghost?" and "Miami"); other than that, there's nothing wrong with this incredible album.

To describe this album: Epic, catchy, a masterpiece.

High Points: "Liar," "MakeDamnSure," "Error Operator."
Low Points: "What's it Feel Like to Be a Ghost?" and "Miami."

Bottom Line-
Overall Rating: A+
Replay value: 5 stars
Conclusion: Definitely worth checking out, even Matt Nichols said it was catchy. I strongly recommend this album to anybody.

Yeah, it is pretty catchy. When I listened to it I was actually suprised. I didn't know Taking Back Sunday was so... um... not really pop-punk but like, ok yeah I guess pop-punkish. It was pretty catchy I was singing the songs the rest of the day.
