5.0 out of 5 stars their best album yet!, May 4, 2005
I have both House of Heroes cds, "what you want it now", and "house of heroes". I have been listening to the first cd for several years straight. It is amazing lyrically and musically. I didn't think their music could get any better, but they managed too with their latest release. I can't get it out of my cd player! They are a much needed break from the sugar pop that the music industry has been subjecting the public to over the past five years. If you like thought provoking lyrics that you can sing to and music that really drives, then this is the band for you. While I like all of the songs on this album, I highly recommend "Friday night." We all know some body like the person in Friday night or we are that person. But like I said before this album is awesome. It's probably one of, if not, the best album I have bought this year.

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome CD, May 6, 2005
I am very happy with the new House of Heroes cd, it hasn't left my cd player since I got it. I've been listening to their last cd, What You Want Is Now, for years and I've always appreciated the unique flair the band has. The new cd is just as loaded with that originality. They have a strong, tight sound and they're not afraid to mix things up and make music that doesn't follow a conventional pattern. The music alone tells it's own story in each song. Definitely check this cd out.

5.0 out of 5 stars 'House Of Heroes' is one hero of an experience., May 2, 2005
By musicman "~Sam." (Cincinnati, Ohio USA) - See all my reviews
These boys know how to rock. They are not your average 3 peice. They've got something new, fresh, different. Passion. Their lyrics are beautifully inspired and talentedly written. Their musical talent as well leaves nothing to be desired. A true 5 star preformance. Cannot wait to get the chance to see these guys in concert this summer. Buy this CD, you will not be dissapointed.
