Saosin - In Search Of Solid Ground


Ok so Im gonna try a couple more Album reviews on here like the Blueprint 3 one

problem is in the past few weeks Ive come across about 7 new LP's and its going to take me a while to do all of them so by the time I get to them it might not be as relevant as I want it to be but heres the first one...

Saosin - In Search of Solid Ground

Once a skeptic of this band my friends changed my mind back in ... geeze what 8th grade or 9th idk bottom line is I downloaded their "old" stuff on napster or kazza hahaha so its been a while, they've changed singers and drummers and have been sidetracked numerous times since than Ive seen all the lineups in concert and to me it still a sound that I enjoy

why the history lesson? well its come to my attention that those very people that turned me onto this band so many years ago have lost attention in this band and some dont even care to hear the new album in fear that it will sound too much like the last one that came out in what 2005 freshman year of college wow it really has been a minute so whats the verdict?

All in all I like it , 14 tracks long which is pretty lenghty for this band... I must admit that I was a little disappointed not to hear anything that made me instantly get pumped like sleepers did for me on the last album, I think partly they were attempting to be a little more commercial in hopes of attracting new fans but some of the songs come out as recycled music we've heard before.... not saying I dont like it its been in my car cd player for about a week now and I haven't swapped it out so to wrap it up if you liked this band to begin with there is no reason you wont like this cd if your a new listener it might be a little more difficult to get into but well see if the videos do well on fuse and online and maybe just maybe they'll make it on to mainstream radio
