Hi my name it MATT!
That's what I always say to Lenny, whom some know as Matt. Don't ask me why, it's something I like to do, it's something I find nice.
I've been buying cd's like a freaking maniac. All of them good. I think I'll start talking about them on here so that I actually have something to post about once in awhile. Today I will be speaking of the new Relient K cd that came out yesterday. I do this because I just listened to it and it's quite fresh in my mind. Anyway, here it is.
Relient K "Two Lefts Don't Make A Right... But Three Do."
Unless you can't read, you can tell that they're still funny. Anyway, like I said before, you could listen to their whole cd on their site before it came out. That's kind of a double edged sword, because you can listen, and get excited for the cd, but then the cd comes and there's nothing new. Oh well, it's good either way. They're definetly getting better at playing music. There's less straight fast punk songs (only one or two that I can think of off hand), and a bit more rock. There's pretty obvious Jimmy Eat World influences on the cd, which is pretty sweet. Trademark (Track #7) starts out like it could be Bleed American 2. Falling Out (#3) also reminds me of Jimmy for no reason. Matt Thiessen seems to have tried a couple new singing tecniques on I Am Understood (#10) and From End To End (#14), which is pretty cool. If you don't know, I'm not the biggest fan of punk, but even the few mostly punk songs on here I dont mind. Mainly because Matt T. is such a witty song writer, and they actually have lots of talent unlike alot of punk bands. It also has the funniest secret song I've heard in a while. When they do have a serious song (which it seems like they have a few more than usual on this one), it shows how good they really are when the want to be. My favorite song right now is probably I Am Understood. That's another thing, Relient K usually has songs that are just what I need to hear at that moment in my life. Anyway, Two Lefts Don't Make A Right... But Three Do. is a way better cd than I expected, and you should buy it (It's only $14 at Rainbow) and laugh and enjoy it.
There you go call it a "review" if you want, I don't care. I'll probably talk about "Love" by The Juliana Theory next time. Maybe you've heard of it. I also may or may not post more song titles and some serious tidbit. So stay tuned!
