4.0 out of 5 stars Almost, but not quite. December 18, 2009
Format:Audio CD
When I purchased this, I had only heard a few of The Almost's best tracks from their first album and enjoyed them immensely. I'm definitely a fan of Underoath as well. But, to say it simply, I wasn't very impressed with this album as a whole. After the first three of four tracks, I was wondering if I had completely wasted my money. But then it started getting much better. Two tracks, "Hand Grenade" and "Monster," are excellent.

As a whole, they sound good as a band. Surprisingly, Aaron's vocals weren't as strong as I've heard on previous recordings. The drums rock, and the arrangements of some songs are really creative. For me, though, there are just too many sub-par songs that sound like a not-as-good version of Paramore.

I will listen again. Maybe they'll start to grow on me.

5.0 out of 5 stars Monster Monster, Awesome Awesome November 7, 2009
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
The Almost has done it again. This time around Aaron has a backing band behind him (instead of playing ALL of the instruments like on Southern Weather). The result is a more cohesive sound. The best way to describe The Almost is if Adam Lazzara of Taking Back Sunday became the frontman of the Foo Fighters. As someone who loved Southern Weather, I was hoping to not be disappointed by Monster Monster after hearing it was more radio-friendly. But fear not! It still has "raw" moments, but just excellent production (per usual) by Aaron Sprinkle. And at currently $7.99, go buy it!

4.0 out of 5 stars rockin November 4, 2009
Format:Audio CD
This album is more positive in sound in contrast to Southern Weather. My favorite song is the last one, Monster-so awesome.

Four starts instead of five because some of the songs in the middle of the CD are good but not great.

The Almost-MonsterMonster has one song I listen to the most -Wrong-, the other songs are kind of western paced like and I haven't really listened to them all that much. Read more

I am not sure if this is better than southern weather, but after listening to it 5 or 10 times, the songs are really starting to grow on me. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing at first, but now I'm addicted.
I am an avid fan of The Almost, and Underoath (the singer's other band he drums and sings in). The last album the had (Southern Weather) was very upbeat punky pop rock. Read more

I hadn't really heard The Almost much when I bought the album, most of the reason me getting it being that I love Underoath. Quite a different style, but still amazing. Read more

Enough good things cannot be said about this album. Southern Weather was a decent effort by Gillespie, but untimely forgettable. Read more
