CD Reviews

Regression to conventional teen pop
Deb Ryan | Bellingham, MA United States | 11/18/2009
(2 out of 5 stars)

"Longtime DC fan who is disappointed by the last two efforts ("Shade of Poison Trees" and now this). Though Carrabba's song writing prowess is on display here, the end result is indistinguishable from the catchy top 40 pop adored by young teens. Not being snarky, but these slickly produced songs are right in-line with Kelly Clarkson and Jonas Brothers, right down to the standard and unnecessary guitar solos. DC took some risks on their album "Dusk and Summer" and I felt it to be their most accomplished album thus far. "Alter the Ending" is an unfortunate evolution into more conventional, Disney radio friendly pop. Some catchy tunes, but ultimately light and forgettable with very unoriginal producing. Can't fault them for chasing commercial success with a broader audience, but the sound is less authentic and certainly not distinct."
