Editorial Reviews

The hard-rockin' Northern California band's much-anticipated follow-up, Someone In Control, co-produced by Don Gilmore (Linkin Park, Pearl Jam, Good Charlotte) and led by the track "Stand Up," expands on the strong sense of melody, soul-searching lyrics and archetypal hooks that separate Trapt from its Modern Rock peers. Fans are standing up for Trapt.

This is one of the few CDs I can listen to without skipping a track. I'm sick of all these new screaming metal bands (I'm looking your way Alexis on Fire) so its good to hear actual singing with the rock music. I cant recommend this enough.

This CD is awesome. I don't know what that one review is talking about. The audience for this is anybody that likes well-written, well-performed music. There is not one weak point on this album, everything straight-up rocks. There is no screaming, and there is no whining (which many people seem to like these days. ???) Chris Brown delivers a stunning performance on vocals, fitting the excellent musicianship perfectly. I cannot wait for an opportunity to see these guys live. They kick ass.

First off, I can never review a CD right away. No way. I have to wait a while. I have to hear it all, read it all, and absorb everything that a band has to offer. After hearing Stand Up on the radio the first time, I was not hooked right away, it actually took awhile for me to like it because it sounded like Headstrong or Echo. But after actuallly reading the lyrics and seeing the whole album for the first time in my hand after I bought it, It clicked. Now don't get me wrong, their self tittled first cd was down right brilliant, and the best cd you could ask for from a "who the heck are these guys...what?..they were still in high school when they recorded this...and have a possible platinum album someday" band. Yes. That is Trapt. Their sophmore cd is a great follow up. No where near their first, but hands down way above average then a normal band that just couldn't produce a solid second cd. They are in conntrol, and have nowhere to go but up. I seen them open for Default and Nickelback, and they definantly got me hooked on all their songs. I'm always worried that these "more popular" bands that people always know because of their hits off the radio, won't step it up and perform. Oh but they did. They put on a great show, and everybody liked them. Definantly fun seeing live. Back to their cd Someone in Control. Other then Stand Up (it will get you hooked), Lost Realist, Bleed Like Me, Disconnected, Victim, and Waiting are all going to get you in a mood that only Trapt can create. Hats off to Trapt to a solid 2nd release. Trapt fans will be impressed, other people will shrug their shoulders and say "Hey, their just another band that sounds the same trying to get the popular demand." No way. That is not Trapt. They are in a group by theirselves. Be in control and buy this album. If you don't have their first album, that IS a must have before this one.
