Average Rating:
 Rating:  - a masterpiece...North is an album that is an acquired taste. As an avid Something Corporate and Jack's Mannequin fan, I certainly did not love North when I first listened to it, but after a while I began to appreciate what a masterpiece it truly is. It just is different than previous Something Corporate albums, but might be the best (although I do love Ready...Break too). The highlights of the album for me are: "Me and the Moon", "Down", "Miss America", "Ruthless", and a bonus track on international albums "Watch the Sky" (which I consider to be one of my top 3-5 Something Corporate songs of all time. You can get the three bonus tracks as downloads ("Watch the Sky", "This Broken Heart", and "Unravel"--a Bjork cover) from www.soco-online.net. Other notable ...

Rating: - The Same, Yet Pleasingly Different`North' is the sophomore offering from Dana Point, CA punk/pop quintet Something Corporate. This album is everything the first album was, and conversely everything the first album was not. The music remains catchy and hook-laden, mostly built around the very capable musical and lyrical abilities of pianist/frontman Andrew McMahon. `North', however, is more sombre, more introspective, and more grown-up than `LTTW'. The lyrics tend to be more poignant and cynical, and the tone of the album is generally somewhat darker than their previous release - thanks in no small part to the fact that it was recorded during a dismal time of the year in Seattle. By no way does that mean the album is of lesser quality than the first - in fact, this is a much better ...

North just doesn't have the same charm. Rating: - Yet another example of an amazing bandWhen I first heard about this young Orange County-based group, I dismissed them as yet another SoCal pop punk act, but I was quickly proven wrong. Their use of piano dominates their music and creates a unique sound. Their most popular song to perform live just happens to be a 9 1/2 minute piano balled called "Konstantine" and despite the fact that this song was never released traditionally on any full Something Corporate album, it remains a favorite of most of the band's fans. The lyrics throughout their albums are poignant and it's obvious that the fans relate to them immensely. On their first album for Drive-Thru Records; "Leaving Through The Window" they discuss young love, girls with low self-esteem, high school grudges as well as many other typical ... Read More: |
