5.0 out of 5 stars Blackout, July 4, 2007

"Blackout": Britt Black-one of the best albums ever made.

Britt Black embarked on a solo gig after leaving the Canadian pop-punk band LiveOnRelease (great band by the way) and playing bass for the infamous Bif Naked (also amazing). After enjoying two albums from LOR (Seeing Red and ...Goes On A Fieldtrip), Britt Black came with up with "Blackout"

"Blackout" is a mix of guitar rifs, one true ballad, a "slower" song and a exceptional lyrics with an unusually beautiful voice to back it up. Here's a list of the tracks and my opinion:

1. Baby, Come On Back: 5/5 An amazing opener with heavy guitars and great lyrics. One of the best songs from "Blackout" and should be a single.

2. She Sells Sanctuary: 3/5 A good song but a little too plain for me. My least favorite.

3. Jet Black Heart: 5/5 The first single and exceptional song. The best written on the album

4. Stuck Here: 5/5 The true ballad and seductive. Should be the fourth single.

5. Sick & Tired: 4/5 I thought this song was funny without being funny. A very good song.

6. In Your Face: 5/5 Very good song and great lyrics

7. Nighttime: 10/5 The best song on "Blackout" and third single

8. Leave A Light One: 5/5 The slower song but very good. Should be the fifth and last single

9. Speed Of Light: 5/5 The second single. Britt's voice is so melodic here.

10. Good Girls: 5/5 Amazing song but it took some time to get to me.

11. Definitely Maybe: 5/5 Good song, used to be my favorite

12. Girl Of Your Dreams: 7/5 Beautiful song. One of the best on the album. The best sounding song

13. The Next Big Thing: 5/5 Sort of weird the way it's arranged but nonetheless an amazing finish

I know that I gave almost each track a 5/5 rating but that's because it's one the best albums I've ever heard. You need to go pick up this album. Now, where I'm from, nobody knows who Britt Black is so I'm at an advantage but I've only been able to find two copies of "Blackout" since 2006. Your best bet is to buy it from the internet.

This is an excellent CD by a very talented and energetic group. I first heard "Jet Black Heart" on a radio station in Toronto and bought the CD. I was not disappointed. The whole CD rocks. But, be careful. There are two completely different mixes of this CD. The one with this black and white cover art with the old building in the background, to my ears, is the best and has the version of Jet Black Heart I had originally heard in Toronto.
