5.0 out of 5 stars
Damn, this CD is good!, 12 Jun 2004
"Story of the year" are a new sensation to me. After buying there album I was hooked to nearly every song. And the hero will drown: As others mention, yes it is a good opener. Lots of screams and vocals. 5/5Until the day I die: What can I say? The best song on the album. Hooked first time I heard it. Dead catchy. Still some hard stuff and shouting, but it almost sounds a bit sad. 5/5 Anthem of our dying day: A bit more slower now, starts off slow, but it then gets loud out of nowhere. Great song. 5/5 In the shadows: This is one of the harder songs. Lots more screams, but it isn't a favourite. 4/5 Dive right in: Slower, but slightly worse, I didn't like this one very much. 3/5 Swallow the knife: Very dark and slow. But I quite liked it. 4/5 Burning years: One of my least favourite songs, dark and fast. Also quite hard. But it sounds too much like "And the hero..." 3/5 Page avenue: A lot of people don't like this one, but I do. It's enjoyable. The only problem is that it sounds similar to another famous song. 5/5 Sidewalks: Probably the slowest song on the album, but it's another good one. Very peaceful and beautiful acoustic playing. 4/5 Divide and conquer: Very weak... I don't like it at all. 2/5 Razorblades: Another favourite. It's a bit more like a normal rock song, but I love it. 5/5 Falling down: Wow! This is a good song. Big shouts, fast drum and guitar playing. Very enjoyable. So, that's all the songs, some good, some not so good. They all start off very hard, but they calm down a bit more. Any casual rock fan will probably like it.
