Music reviews of Revolutions Per Minute
Music Review: Revitalized my love for punk rock
Rating: 5 Stars
First let me say I have been very disappointed by the punk music that has been coming out lately in the music industry. For the past two years I really haven't listened to much punk rock or anything of the sort because it feels like every band that I loved growing up lost their edge and began writing slower and poppier music. Not to mention the popularity of the new punk rock styling of fall out boy, paramore, panic at the disco, the all american rejects, simple plan... the list goes on. But after feeling a desire to listen to some new punk rock I bought this on a whim at the record store after the staff member recommended it to me. I have to say that for a punk album of the 2000's it really really blew me away and revitalized my interest in punk music.
Now on to the album. Revolutions Per Minute is fast, full of angst, is catchy, features many memorable hooks, and contains a lot of aggression, reminding me a lot of the punk from the 1990's which I grew up loving.
Black Masks And Gasoline: 10/10 This song kicks the CD off with an explosive intro leading into a full on assault of drums and guitar, the chorus is very catchy and this song is probably one of my favorite.
Heaven Knows: 9/10 Continuing with the speed from the last track, this song is catchy and fast. This song has a bass breakdown that is interesting.
Dead Ringer: 9/10 this song is more hardcore and fast than the other two before it. I really enjoy the chorus in this one.
Halfway There: 10/10 this is another excellent song with a lot of aggression, however it is slower than the last three. Again this chorus really shines and is very memorable. "When enough is enough that's when you know that you're halfway there." Awesome
Like The Angel: 10/10 this song is slower again but features some great basslines that really hook you in from the start. Again the chorus is awesome and memorable.
Voices Off Camera: 10/10 this song is another fast number with some good guitar lines and good vocals with a sweet breakdown at the end.
Blood-Red White and Blue: 10/10 this song really grabs you and doesn't let up until the end. The best part is the solo at the end it's really awesome.
Broken English: 10/10 A slower number again with another great chorus.
Last Chance Blueprint: 9/10 What really shines in this song is the chorus and the rise at the end that leads back to the chorus. The only thing about this song is that it has some words spoken from the movie American Beauty which I don't really fit the song.
To The Core: 7/10 Another hardcore song, it is aggressive and hard but not as memorable as dead ringer.
Torches: 7/10 This song isn't too memorable but there is nothing particularly bad about it.
Amber Changing: 7/10 Again not too bad but not too memorable.
(Bonus Track) Anyway You Want It: 10/10 I really like this cover version of the song. Tim's vocals sound really great with the music and it ends the CD is a happier note.
Overall the CD is a great one with lots of hooks and aggression. For anyone who likes melodic hardcore or punk rock I would highly recommend this CD. Unfortunately the last two or three tracks before the bonus track aren't too memorable, the rest of the CD is catchy and well makes up for it's shortcomings.
