 Good Charlotte - Cardiology Album ReviewDecember 16th 2010 16:04
Released: October 27, 2010 Genre: Pop rock, Pop punk Length: 46:52 Label: Capitol Three years after Good Morning Revival, Good Charlotte return with Cardiology, their fifth studio album. Produced by Don Gilmore – the man behind Good Charlotte’s debut album and Good Morning Revival – Cardiology is a return to the fun pop-infused sound of the band’s self-titled debut album and sophomore effort, The Young And The Hopeless . Cardiology has fifteen tracks, including the short Introduction To Cardiology which is a snippet of the final song and an interlude titled The Fifth Chamber. The album is basically split into two parts: tracks two to eight are uptempo while the rest of the songs are mostly ballads. The first thing that strikes the listener after a full listen is that the doom-and-gloom sound of The Chronicles Of Life And Death is completely gone while the fun and catchiness of Good Charlotte’s first two albums is back along with the party atmosphere of Good Morning Revival. Cardiology begins with the ubiquitous don’t-give-up song Let The Music Play, although Let The Music Play is closer to “March On” from Good Morning Revival than “Hold On” (The Young And The Hopeless). From then on, it’s fun time with the catchy Counting The Days, Like It’s Her Birthday, Last Night, Sex On The Radio and Alive. Counting The Days’ catchy hook was quite similar to Lostprophets’ work while Like It’s Her Birthday and Last Night felt like a musical continuation of “Dance Floor Anthem.” The Madden brothers continue their lyrical growth on this album with 1979, There She Goes, and Right Where I Belong all alluding to their past in Maryland in a less awkward manner as their previous albums (I'm looking at you "Predictable"). In the end, Cardiology is a fun album, not a great album but the majority of the songs are catchy and provide an enjoyable listen. Fans of Good Charlotte’s first two albums will definitely enjoy this one as it keeps the fun and positiveness of Good Charlotte and The Young And The Hopeless while adding musical elements from Good Morning Revival that tighten up the whole package. Final Grade: 3.75/5. Like It’s Her Birthday Music Video
Full Tracklist: 1. Introduction To Cardiology 2. Let The Music Play 3. Counting The Days 4. Silver Screen Romance 5. Like It’s Her Birthday 6. Last Night 7. Sex On The Radio 8. Alive 9.

Apparently, I haven't posted here in two months. Hopefully, my work schedule lightens soon so I could write stuff about the European leagues...
Until next time...

As some of you may have noticed, FootballSlate has gone dormant since the World Cup. Truth is, I finally found a full-time job that doesn't leave me much time to blog. I hope to be back on track in the next two weeks. Until then, you can follow FL on Twitter at the following address: Really Long Link
All Quiet In Habs LandAugust 9th 2010 03:18
It's been a pretty summer in Montreal this year. Much of it has to do with a tight salary cap which doesn't leave a lot of wiggle room for general managers around the league. The Canadiens had to ship playoff hero Jaroslav Halak to St. Louis to make sure that they would ave enough money to resign centerman Tomas Plekanec. Veterans Metropolit, Moore and Mara have been let go in favor of younger, cheaper options while RFA Carey Price has yet to sign a new deal.
And that is the crux of the matter right there. Until Price signs, there will be nothing of note in Habs land. Sure, 2010 draftee Louis Leblanc has been burning up development camp but there's no sense hyping another francophone player only to be left severely disappointed when he doesn't meet expectations (see Guillaume Latendresse

I agree that it's not a bad album. I was just disappointed, that's all
As for seeing them live, I got my NKOTBSB ticket for next summer, and it will be my third time seeing them in concert, can't wait
