5.0 out of 5 stars The best in a long while, August 22, 2002

By

This review is from: Stop (Audio CD)

When a friend of mine came up to me with a cd from "a friend's band from Chicago", i was skeptical to say the least.. and as the intro to Stop, the first and title track, kicked in, my skepticism was left in the dust. The Plain White T's manage to combine the catchiness and punkish guitars of The Get Up Kids, with the hearbreaking lyrics of Dashboard Confessional, and diversity of speed and heaviness of Saves the Day. They combine all this for a fresh, pure new sound in by far the best album of 2002.

From the first track, the Plain White T's spill an incredible energy, a rarity to the current emo scene. The guys bring two things that emo hasn't seen in a while.. more traditional timing and presentation of their guitar solos, that, in a word-- rock; and suprisingly, a little bit of optomism.. They are NOT just another bland ripoff of popular bands like Dashboard. Instead of loathing in self pity after the end of heartbreak, The T's, capture the thoughts going through the head of the dumped brilliantly, yet are not afraid to move on (What if) or blame the other person (all your fault) things not heard often in emo.

The Plain White T's also avoid the one dimension-ness of many new emo bands.. The songwriting is incredible, spaning from a plea to an alchoholic friend, (Shine) to an heartbreaking song of a lost friend (Radios in Heaven).. The classic emo themes are definately not lost, however. The song Lonely September, my favorite on the album, is one of the best pure acoustic emo songs i've heard in a long long while. The lyrics capture the loneliness, helplessness, and paranoia of a breakup like only emo can. (Example- "Sitting here all by myself just trying to think of somethin to do, tryin to think of somethin anything just to keep me from thinking of you). Stop is built beautifully.. it captures you on first listen with catchy chord transitions and pop-friendly beats, then keeps you listening over and over again for the powerful songwriting and a well developed relationships between instruments.. i have played the cd for almost everyone i know since getting it, and every person, regardless of what type of music they listen to, has been left practically breathless... this is without a doubt the best album I have heard in a very long while, and I would recommend it whole heartedly to anyone.

I must admit, I had never heard of this band until a good friend of mine sent me a song of theirs. The moment I heard it, I was hooked. The lyrics are intelligent and tap into real emotion. A must have for anyone who likes to have some substance with their strumming.
