Just when you thought it was safe to walk out your front door under the assumption that the dance-rock craze of last year was all but dead, in comes the new album from the Sounds to make you crawl back into your musical hole and wait until this fad truly is finished. Although the band had previously blended pop and rock music with some keyboards on previous efforts, it was pulled off with much better results than the drab club music found on Dying to Say This to You.

This a pretty good album. They do the dance pop thing just fine. I totally disagree with the reviewer. This is a great album, One of the best that I listened to last year. Caution this is a great album when your stoned Maja`s hot and her vioce makes me horny! This reviewer obviously has little to no experience in reviewing music. Period. The whole rant was nonsensical and purely opinion based. I can do that too, I think the album is great! Not as dancy as there first one, which in my opinion, in better. I'm looking for gay sex. I love that dance music and hooking up with random guys for a little reacharound in the bathroom stalls. i want to have a 3 way with the ladies on the cover of this record. as for listening to it? no thank you. Phantom fella has a point (though Scruffy has one too)... but I think the Phantom point can go up against the new Hilary Duff material and The Sounds pale in comparison. " 'This does not mean I like them, but I'd rather hear them than Burry Us with Your Hearts in Cold November or something like that. ' I am a sucker for titalin. This band blows and the singer looks like a man in drag, she's ugly as burnt toast. "This does not mean I like them, but I'd rather hear them than Burry Us with Your Hearts in Cold November or something like that. " The chick on the Distance album cover is hotter. Her make up kind of makes her look like Bozo the Clown, though. Ah, what the hell. CLOWN PORN ON THE HOUSE!!! Ah, The sounds! es una buena banda (si no hubiera existido Blondie), con un toque de punk (si el punk hubiera nacido en los 80's). Oh, I'm ready for it, come on bring it. Is it wrong that I want to do a line of coke off of one of these girls collar bones? I don't even do coke, but that sounds like the best idea ever. Now, I am not going to pretend to like The Sounds, but I think everyone is too harsh on them. They are "punk" in the way that Blondie was (in fact they remind me a lot of Blondie). This does not mean I like them, but I'd rather hear them than Burry Us with Your Hearts in Cold November or something like that. So ya, feel free to rip my comment now....and begin. I'd listen to tis if I could meet the chick with the tank top boo man...i have no idea how you can like that painted by numbers song...those little kid na na na's and that ridiculously irritating synth that mimicks the vocals in the chorus...hooooooly shit what? this is the same cover as the new Distance album Holy shit, this albums' not that bad. Scott is so incredibly right on about MisShapes. Ugggh. Don Hills. Gosh darned atrocious. It boggles the mind. There's a reason it took so long to comeout in NA, and that's because it blows. odd, i literally just started listening to this cd, ganked it from my bosses cds yeah seriously dudes, that album cover is disgusting The cover "models" are two of the coked-out regulars at MisShapes, this ultra-scenester party series that takes place in NYC. Score's for MisShapes. Last album was great, this album, uh, not so good. my sister loves this shit, I was always curious about the cover. Who are the people that design the awful artwork for these records? this is shitty but not as shitty as emo or metalcore how could the music possibly outdo that cover? The album cover is very original...oh wait no its not! I see a nipple ! I haven't heard a song off this record, but I really dig The Sounds. It's not punk but it's a lot of fun. "Dance With Me" (especially that intro) and "Living In America" are excellent pop songs. Running out of Turbo is a fucking good song. The rest of the cd... not so much. But check out that song. And maybe Ego. Yeah. That one too. I'm sure you're probably beating more than a dead horse...but seriously...score is for the cover! not to beat a dead horse, but i like the album cover Dying to Say This Sucks And Is Worth One Star My score is for the boobies on the cover! The titties are fantastic. I really liked one or two songs from their last album, but I never bothered to listen to the whole thing. Guess I won't be listening to this one, either.... Their last record was pretty good so I'm surprised to hear that this one fell short. Why Did You Guys Even Bother? |
