Julie KeastAvril's new album probaby The Worst Damn Album I have listened to this year
I spent a lot of last night listening to albums that I have bought and haven't had the chance to listen to or haven't listened to in a while and I have to admit there was one album that really disappointed me in all of the albuma I listened to. I listened to Time On Earth by Crowded House, My December by Kelly Clarkson, The Best Damn Thing by Avril Lavigne, Dream Days at the Hotel Existence by Powderfinger and Won't Be Soon Before Long by Maroon 5.
The new Crowded House album was what I expected it to be, quite dark and strangely beautiful. The track Even A Child is one of those songs that gets stuck in your head, it is extremely catchy. Neil Finn's voice continues to amaze me. I have no doubt that Time On Earth will debut at No 1 on the ARIA charts next week
Powderfinger's new album is a definite contender for Album of the Year at the ARIA Awards later this year. I can't name a memorable song from it because they are all memorable in some way, Dream Days goes a long way to ensuring Powderfinger are remembered as one of the best bands to ever come out of Australia.
Maroon 5's second album is definitely a little better then their first, the second album sprouts a brand new direction from Adam Levine and the band. Won't Be Soon Before Long sees the band take on an eighties electronic rock sound that is very different to the first album, Songs About Jane (which to be honest I thought was a little boring in some ways). It's probably not going to make it to any top 10 album of the year list but there are definitely songs that will stick in your head.
My December is Kelly Clarkson's third album and really could equal as a bit of a disappointment because it is really more of the same as Clarkson's second album Breakaway. The first single Never Again desperately tries to be the third album's Since You've Been Gone but unfortunately it hasn't quite worked. Ultimately I believe there are only one or two songs that really had my hair standing on end
Now out of all the albums I listened to last night, it was Avril Lavigne's latest album which really disappointed me. All the songs seemed to run together and it really seemed that instead of going forward, Avril is going somewhat backward, a lot of the songs are childish, I needed a panadol. The best song on the album would easily have to be the second single When You're Gone with Runaway a distant second. I knbw Avril wanted her third album to be fun but let me tell you, I did not have fun listening to this album at all.
So what albums have you listened so far this year that you have either enjoyed or thought was a bit of a rank disappointment and not what you were expecting it to be.
