5.0 out of 5 stars Yellowcard's new album review, February 5, 2006

The new Yellowcard album is finally out! This time however, they have released a special edition consisting of the album cd as well as a dvd which contains special features all about YELLOWCARD--how they made the music video, composed the song, etc! The songs are alittle different than the previous album; the lyric, in addition to the reason for its composition, sounds much more "mature" with alot more instrumental melody surrounding the mellow essence of the music. The songs when you listen to it really makes you think after...It's not just punk-rock music anymore, but more thoughtful and much more aware of the world; deep stuff! The dvd is really awesome where you get to hear every member's opinion about the album, their music video, kind of get to see their everyday life as a rock star, their reasons for writing songs now, etc. You can experience how much effort it takes to just write a song; what goes into it and so forth! This album is one of the best album out yet from Yellowcard! I totally recommend the special edition over the single-cd album! HOPE YOU ENJOY YELLOWCARD'S NEW ALBUM, LIGHTS AND SOUND!

5.0 out of 5 stars Worth every penny, January 25, 2006

Ocean Avenue came out ages ago, and yet I still listen to all the songs. I liked it for the catchy tunes and good vocals. Lights and Sounds is almost nothing like Ocean Avenue as a whole, but it's not bad in any way at all. Songs like "Two Weeks From Twenty" and "Words, Hands, Hearts" are relevant to current living in the world. "Martin Sheen or JFK," "Waiting Game," and "Down on my Head" are some of my favorites, although I'm sure at least one of these songs will be permanantly imprinted in your mind. The "New Sound" is still purely Yellowcard and only sacrifice "poppy tunes" for more mature lyrics which sound just as good. Your wait has finally ended.

I absolutley love Yellowcard. In fact, Ocean Avenue was the first CD I ever bought in which I liked EVERY SINGLE SONG on the CD. After Ocean Avenue, I went and bought One For The Kids and The Underdog [EP]. Both were CD's that I fell in-love with as well. And Lights & Sounds is no exception. This Yellowcard CD has got a much more mature sound. It's absoulutley fantastic. Ryan Key has such a talent for writing lyrical masterpieces and the others have such a great musical writing talent. Sean Mackin's violin selections have got to be the most beautiful violin sets the rock world has ever seen. I highly recommend that if you like Yellowcard or have bought any of their previous CD's, BUY THIS ONE! You will surley NOT be disappointed...
