5.0 out of 5 stars The Beauty of Letting Go doesn't dissapoint, October 28, 2005

I stumbled upon Socialburn by accent about 3 years ago when a friend left their CD "Where You Are" in my dorm room. After one listen of the cd, I was hooked. I am mostly into somewhat heavier stuff (Staind, Mudvayne, Chevelle, Disturbed, etc.), but something about the cd just hit me.

Anyways, this cd (which is actually they're fourth, they had two independant releases before "Where You Are") continues on that great sound. Neil Alday is one the most talented men in the music industry today.

I've been listening to Touch the Sky for awhile, as it has been up on myspace for awhile. The song is very upbeat, lyrically sound, and probably my favorite on the album. While all songs on the cd are very good, I would also recommend checking out Love Hate, Leaving Song, Cold Night, and the newest version of I'm Happy (previously released on "Where You Are," and the independant release "What A Beautiful Waste."

5.0 out of 5 stars Solid Rock Album, January 22, 2006

"The Beauty of Letting Go" is the follow up to Socialburn's previous label release, "Where You Are." Since that previous record, Socialburn has taken a noticeable step forward, improving upon their already great sound. On a whole, the tracks tend to be a bit more upbeat and the hooks that the band prides themselves on have gotten even better.

Socialburn's sound is unique for current rock bands and takes you back to the grunge days of the early 90's. Lead singer Nail Alday has one of those atpyical, gravelly voices that will remind you at times of other great frontmen like Gavin Rossdale, Eddie Vedder, Raine Maida and Chris Cornell.

If you were a fan of early 90's rock/alternative or are a rock fan in general, you will not be dissappointed if you add this album to your collection. If you want to try a sample, I'd suggest downloading "Be A Man" or "Cold Night" from iTunes or Napster. After trying those tracks out, you'll be ready to buy the album.

And for any parents who are previewing this album for their kids, the lyrics are mature but completely kid safe.

5.0 out of 5 stars Keep your an eye on these guys!, March 23, 2006

This album is the kind you pop in while driving to rock out to! I became a loyal fan when I heard SocialBurn back in 2003 when they dropped, "Where you are". This newest cd, "The Beauty of Letting Go" impressed me even more. I love the way Nail Alday's (lead singer) voice has improved on this album. I love the deepness he has in his voice and lyrics. The track "Get Out Alive" is a song I listen to when I want to escape and indulge in music! I love this band! SocialBurn should be respected by all because of this latest album. If you don't know of them yet, you soon will.
