My very first music CD review at long last! The reason why I couldn't do this earlier was because I couldn't find a good way to upload a picture of the album cover for reivew. Blogger was giving me this strange option to download a huge programme instead. Oh well.
Lifehouse, this is their third venture, their first two albums were equally good and generated a huge fan base with their highly popular songs Hanging By A Moment and Spin.
With Lifehouse, these guys did justice to their music. Their music now sounds a little bit like the group The Calling. They have definitely left their Creed identity behind and have turned down the amps from their first two albums. With lyrics written by Jason Wade, the lead vocals for the band, everything seems to be going right! The album has a mellow and sombre mood to it that definitely tugs are the heart. But there are songs reminding us or who we are and the journey is ongoing through life. Jason Wade is an excellent songwriter, I think he might even give Rob Thomas a run for his money!
I highly recommend this album to first time listeners of the group Lifehouse (do NOT confuse with Lighthouse Family!), and also anyone with strong affinity for The Calling and the likes of their music. It grows on you and you'll be hungry for more by the time you finish listening to it.
9 out of 10 - Excellent! Highly Recommended, A Must-buy!
My personal reference Scale Ratings out of 10:
0-3 : Hideous! It must be used as a frisbee!
4-6 : Average! Sitting on the fence, needs work, to buy or not to buy.
7-8 : Good! Worth listening to and buying. Recommended.
9-10 : Excellent! Highly Recommended, a must-buy!
