4.0 out of 5 stars Review of lovehatetragedy, June 24, 2002

By

This review is from: Lovehatetragedy (Audio CD)

In this CD, Papa Roach have dropped the rapping in every song save for the single "She Loves Me Not". I don't know weather this is good or bad. Some songs were almost certainly written with rap in mind, namely tracks 6,8,10, and maybe 3. Anyhoo, here's the song by song.

M-80: All in all a good song, though a bit confusing at first. Good rock anthem.

Life is a bullet: Probably the worst song on the album, but gets the emotions through well.

Time and Time Again: Good song, I like the beginning, and the chorus.

Walking through Barbed Wire: Easily the best song on the album. Kind of scary thought, mathcing the lyric "I would die for you" with the fact that it's about a dead dog.

Decompression Period: Slow at first, but then it picks up.

Born with Nothing, Die with Everything: Great song to headbang to. Love the beginning.

She Loves Me Not: One of the best songs on the album, and the only one with rap. Good cymbals.

Singular Indestructable Droid: Cyborgs kick [bottom]. So does this song. This was inspired by the DJ from Slipknot (get the Sid acronym?)

Black Clouds: Great song, inspiring to anyone who suffers from depression. Captures the essence.

Code of Energy: Don't quite get the lyrics, but you can still rock out.

lovehatetragedy: Has a bit of an epic feel. I like the slow part. I have it stuck in my head right now. Good lyrics to.

Gouge Away: Bit weird, but good. Drug reference, shield your virgin ears.

Never Said It: Weird lyrics, great instumentals.

Overall worth buying, in my opinion. Very different from Infest, but change is inevitable (except from a vending machine). The drums seem to be a little quieter, and the guitars a little less staticky, less rough. If you're to closed-minded to appreciate an excellent album just because they are no longer embracing the nu metal fad de jour, rap-rock, then it's your loss.

5.0 out of 5 stars On Second Thought........, July 23, 2002

By 

Michael Crane (Orland Park, IL USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Lovehatetragedy (Audio CD)

.....this album is really better than I had thought at first. I wrote a review giving it only four stars. (Well, actually 4 and a half stars.) This album is really a lot better than I gave it credit. I've had a chance to listen to this album more and more, and the more I hear it...the more I like it.

Unlike the first album, "Infest," "Lovehatetragedy," steers away from rock-rap and just dives into rock. With the exception of the last verse of "she loves me not," there is virtually no rapping at all. That may anger some fans....and yet, it may make fans more happier. I know it did for me. The lead singer really does have a great voice, and he takes advantage of it more than on the first album.

The songs are written a lot better, especially lyric wise. They're more deeper and emotional, even darker at times. The guitars also have improved more, as well as the drumming.

EVERY song on this album is good. My favorite songs still have not changed from the previous review, with the exception of adding "gouge away" to that list. But really, this is an album you can put on and not worry about what song it's on. A great album to play when driving! I still think that the only weak point of the album is the length. It's not even fourty minutes long. It would've been nice to have it longer. Then again, when do you get to hear an album with no bad songs? So I guess that makes up for it.

If you really like the group, I suggest getting the limited editon of this album. It has two extra songs, which are awesome, and it includes two live videos for the computer.

I've noticed that some people have been complaining about the "whining" that this band does in the songs. Dude, this is what rock and music is all about. How else are these guys going to get their emotions out? Isn't that why they wanted to be in a band in the first place? They may be famous, but they still have problems just like you and me. Just because you have it all, doesn't mean you HAVE it all, you know.

So, I've upgraded my rating of "Lovehatetragedy" to five stars. It really deserves it, and should've been the rating on my first review. Sorry about that. It's nice to see that the boys are starting to leave rap-rock and just play great rock music. Heavy, and brutally honest and emotion packed, "Lovehatetragedy," is a great album. If they keep it up, it looks like they will be around for a long time. It'll be something to see how these guys change when they come out with a third album.
