I would suggest getting this album only if you like lots of screaming vocals.

"I'd like to open the floor by laughing at something I just read: "I'd rather spend $20 on a Hawthorne Heights album with only three songs it than spend $1 on any book, it's as simple as that. So if you want to go spend your precious money on books that teach you nothng, then fine. But if you want to spend a mere $15 on a CD that will leave you fulfilled for years to come, then go and buy this Hawthorne Heights album. If you know what real music is, then you'll appreciate this album to the fullest." (Note: This was a 5 star review)



#1. This is what's wrong with society today! We gain all of our knowledge from music, and nothing from books.



#2. Would you really spend $20 on a 3 song cd? If that's the case, I'll make a CD for you with 18 songs that are all like this group. Can I have $54 now?



#3. Simply the line, "So if you want to go spend your precious money on books that teach you nothng, then fine." You just slaughtered yourself with that one!



ON TO THE CD REVIEW:



Note: If this review makes it past the board of amazon, I'll be surprised!



What in the hell is wrong with America that suicide is such a dream for mass quantities? "So cut my wrists and black my eyes" ... "Yesss!! Man, that's so good!" Are you retarded? Seriously!



"As days go by I swear I'll try (I'll wait for you) until I die, anything for you" Aww, how sweet. Wait, no it's not, it's a wasted life. Though, it really won't even be that long since he's about to slit his wrist anyway.



Also, I honestly can't tell the difference in the songs. They all sound the same! So, for the guy above, those 18 songs are going to sound the same, and the lyrics will be about how my life sucks without you and that I can't make it on my own. I may have a go at writing a HH song. :::(ahem)::: anything in (parentheses) is screamed horribly:



My life is so dark

So dark without you here (without you)

I can't live my life

I can't function without you (with - out youuuu)

Here's a bottle of my tears

I cried when I was (without you)

I have a hundred more

That I'll eventually give you (give youuuu)



*Chorus*

So tie the noose and tie it tight

There won't be sleep for me tonight (no sleep)

I'll just hang out and wait

For you to find me with a broken heart and neck (no sleeep)



When I'm gone

You can have my heart (take my heart)

You'll find inside

A picture of you in there (take my heart)

My life is so lonely

Even though I see you all the time (all the time)

Now I can watch over you

Once I'm heart broken in heaven (break my heart)



Repeat chorus until satisfied...



Hey, not bad for completely off the top of my head! I should be in a band!



I've heard that this band was so good since they had two vocalists, eh? Well, that doesn't mean they're good. Sonny and Cher were two singers, and they are horrible! Try Brand New if you want duel singers.



If you want a band with a screamer that's good, check out a real band: Rise Against!"
If you claim this cd to be anything above mediocre, listen t

"Alright. First off, if you are claiming that HH is unique in anyway, you really need to listen to more music.



And by music, I don't mean the stuff that MTV feeds to you in a bottle and claims it is the next big thing.



This band features nothing special about them... regurgitated lyrics they mopped up from the floor and added music to is not special. I doubt any line in the entire CD is sincere, let alone a stanza.



The lyrics... man.. the lyrics. I was actually going along with the music and everything for a while... then "cut my wrists" jumped in there and I punched the guy's ovaries for writing it. Seriously, if you cannot pickup on his definate ploy to infultrate little girl's plastic minds then you truly need to turn your tv off and stop watching Maury and MTV.



The song structure is amazingly predictable and they followed the same patterns for every song. This is probably the best CD in most people who own it's collection, which says a lot, so I suppose you think they are something special.



They arent. Do yourself a favor and listen to something unique in any aspect. This band reminds me of the likes of any boy band. What's popular at the time? Alright. Do that, take money from 13 year old girl's parents. Great plan.



In any case, bands such as My Chemical Romance (whome I have followed since the release of their first cd, and it seems that every single middle school girl has the same flippin shirt now... kinda irritates me) and Motion City Soundtrack deserve recognition. This band does not.



For some truly unique music listen to mewithoutYou.



Also. None of you know what emo music is. If you haven't heard Sunny Day Real Estate and The Promise Ring then you truly have no clue with actual emo music is. Actual emo music doesnt exist anymore."
