5.0 out of 5 stars no breakdowns? did you hear this cd?, August 19, 2005

This review is from: Last Night in Town (Audio CD)

Ok...so i'm slowly developing a reputation for coming in a fixing the reviews by the earless people on this website. but no breakdowns on last night in town? did everyone listen to track 3? "...WHOLE LOTTA SHAKIN' GOIN' ON...WHOLE LOTTA SHAKIN' GOIN' ON"? the beat slows down...it gets more brutal and it's at the end...those who think that's what a stereotypical breakdown sounds like might've overlooked that. and considering that the red chord reevaluated what we call a breakdown there are actually breakdowns on half these songs...there's one on Jimmy Tango's Method, there's one on Here's Lookin' At You, there's one on...jesus people, suck it up...listen harder. Not all breakdowns are chug-chug beatdowns like remembering never, it dies today and throwdown. there are breakdowns on this cd...they just don't sound like all other breakdowns that you've ever heard...and considering that's the main draw of ETID (not sounding like everything else you've ever heard) you'd think people would've picked up on that...apparently not.

as far as the cd itself is concerned, etid is one've my three all time favorite bands, so i'm a little bit biased...but this album owns, as does hot damn, and the gutter phenomenon cd that comes out the 23rd, i've got it already, and it owns too...check out anything they've done, it's all good stuff. and i think the best thing about etid is that everyone raves about their lyrics and how clever they are, including me, i think they're genius...and keith buckley said in an interview that up until their newest cd he was just rambling incoherently...says something about 'modern art'. haha...anyway...check this out. i love it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very Solid Hardcore Album, June 23, 2005

One of my favorite bands, Every Time I Die. What can I say about their first album (Burial Bidding Plot doesn't count as an album)...it's fast, frenzied, and loud. Hot Damn! might have been THE album that put them on the map, but Hot Damn! carried a more "mosh party" feel to it opposed to the "slam dance til you die" feel of this album. The music itself is more sophisticated in the album opposed to Hot Damn!. I dare to say that Every Time I Die could have spawned a new style of mathcore with it's intense time signature changes and it's frenzied individual sound. The upcoming new album (to me personally) sounds really good...almost a combination of Hot Damn! and Last Night in Town. Every hardcore music lover should have this album.

4.0 out of 5 stars a truly engaging/refreshing release, July 14, 2003

By 

Alex (radnor, pa) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Last Night in Town (Audio CD)

I've found that people tend to either not get "every time I die" or love them. I happen to love them. much of the contraversy seems to stem from frontman Keith's vocal delivery. A friend of mine, upon hearing his voice, yelled "it sounds like he's going to kill me!" with more than just a bit of concern in her voice. It's true, he sounds insane, and I mean that in the best way possible.

The vocals have been called "glassjaw-like" by more than one reviewer, and it's true, when singing clearly, he does sound a bit like the fellah from glassjaw. Personally, I was reminded much more of the Cave In album "until your heart stops" anyone who's heard that disc should know that this is high praise. Keith bounced around from screaming like a madman(literaly) to sometimes surprisingly melodic passages. I know this has been done before, but what matters is it's done well here.

I have to mention the lyrics. I'm not usually one for scruitinizing hardcore lyrics, but these are really pretty clever, thought provoking, and generally well written. and it's about time. check out "the logic of crocodiles" and "here's lookin at you" for proof of this.

This album is near perfect, though rather short. after just a few listens, you'll find yourself screaming allong "comeon and smile you f--kers, it's not often you get this chance!"
every time i die have been getting a lot of recognition lately, and deservedly so.
