CD Reviews

Short And Sweeeeeet...
D. Brown | Philadelphia | 02/11/2005
(4 out of 5 stars)

"I hate when great CD's don't last long in terms of running time. This is one of those CD's. A great sound that clocks in at just 34 minutes. But I enjoy the short time I have with Name Taken when I listen to the album.



I can't say there is anything ground breaking about this album. It's your standard band set up and standard rock and roll. But they find a melody for ever song that I really enjoy.



The sound quality of the album is perfect. I am a drummer myself, so I pay attention to that the most, and it sounds crisp, and live.



I love the singer too. I'm not an expert when it comes to singing, I'm far from a vocal coach - but the singer gives me the sense that he's very passionate about what he's singing. It doesn't sound as if he's yelling to be loud, or to give some hard rock vocal sound. It really does feel like he's caught up in the emotion of the song, and the volume that comes from him voice reflects that.



Each song has that kind of rhythm, not just in terms of tempo, but in terms of the overall feel of the song itself, that you can picture an entire floor of an audience jumping in time, and the lyrics give you the image of that audience singing along with the words too.



The reason for the 4/5 star review is I wish there was more on this CD. They certainly seem like they have the potential to release more material. And if it's true that he's that passionate about the songs, it would seem only natural to me that he has a plethora of ideas and stories he wants to get out there. I guess I'll just have to wait for the next album."

"The First time i heard Name Taken was when my friend gave me a mix of all sorts of Punk Rock, Emo, and Screamo stuff. I heard the song "This was Never", and from then on i've loved this band. They are a really good band and if you like soft punk rock/ Emo you will love this album. Other tracks to check out are "We Give Up Sometimes"."
Best CD I've heard....

"This is seriously the best CD I've heard. I play this CD every single day in my car. I even blast Name Taken on my work's stereo. I don't think I'll ever get tired of them...



As far as some songs being fillers... Whatever to that. They all are good.



This is one band I tell all my friends about. I tell strangers to buy their album, haha!"
