5.0 out of 5 stars a beautiful title for a nightmarish album, December 19, 2001

By	Cornelius Talmadge - See all my reviews

my friend listens to a lot of emo. he listens to so much emo that it is very hard to pick out bands from each other at times. bands like jimmy eat world, brandtson, juliana theory, to name a few. however, keepsake was a short ep that i was able to pick up on quickly and immediately realize that these guys are incredible. the cd starts out with the title track, which is a very poppy upbeat song. it has plenty of moving percussion beats, and powerful riffs, accented by the singer's vocals, which range from a child-like song to a terrifying scream. it is followed by the less-than-happy "the alcohol diary", a dark song, but certainly not the darkest. the guitar work on this, to me, is the best on the cd, especially on the spoken word part...but maybe that is just me. the rest of the cd, "sweet white lies", "one season too late", and "the art of collapsing" are all beautiful looks into this emo-core band from florida. while this isn't their first album, it was the one that introduced me to them. i purchased their newest album, "the end of sound", and while many people have said rather mean things about the sudden change in lyric writing and the move to more noticably upbeat songs, i feel that the new cd is definitely worth a look too. granted, it doesn't have the angst or the harshness that is the dark cloud over "she hums like a radio", but in any matter, i look forward to this band producing more amazing work. they just signed on a new record label, fearless records, and their next release is due early in 2002. so please, by all means, check this cd out.
