Don't Look Down
Start the Show (2002)
Hmm.. What can I say about this band? They are great? Great riffs? Great singing? Friendliest? They are all of the above.
This is the debut album for Dont Look Down on Iguana Records. They have been around for about 4-5 years in the South Jersey area, tearing it up, making a name for themselves. They are friends of mine as well. They have earned this record deal by far. Their popularity is growing and is going to keep growing. They produced their first cd which some of the songs from this cd came from, but yet they re-did them to make them sound the best they can. These guys work so hard for their fans. I know these guys will make it big.
The first song is called "On My Own", this is a catchy tune which will keep get you into the cd quickly. "Get It Right" is next, a song that has been around for a while and one of the bandest most liked songs. "The Beginning" is a new song on the cd. Catchy, pop-punk song. Great. #4 is Brainwashed which is a amazing song if your into the pop-punk scene. "All Those Times" is a quick song with lyrics about girls, plainly said. "Hindsight"-simply great, one of my favorite songs on the cd due to the lyrics-"Cause Findin' out I am different, isn't something I miss". "Start the Show" is on of the fast songs on the cd with lyrics that will suck you in. #8-"Whats Left"-Catchy, like all the other songs but yet a bit slower. #9-"Trying"-Fast(slows in some parts), brilliant is all I can say about this song. "Fade" is the following song. It used to be called "Another Day" but they changed the name. It was the most liked songs on their previous cd which is hard to find now a days. "Away" is #11, my favorite song on the cd with a fast beat and lyrics which are simply great("Take me Awaaaaaaaaay!"). #12 is "Not alone" makes you think about all the memoires you have had and has great guitars in it. The final song is "Better Off". A slow song to end the cd.
Overall, this is a great debut album for this up and coming bands. I have supported them since they started and will continue to. Go out and get this cd, doesnt matter what you listen to.
