Negative Positive
Title: Please don't buy this album
Review: Although not a massive fan of the first album, I can truthfully say that I enjoyed the two singles Thank You, Here With Me, and especially the last track on the album - My Life, which had a fresh urgent feel to it.As for Life For Rent, it has great production, a nice beat & all manner of nice spacey acoustic-y sounds. So 'what's the problem?' you say.Well, to be honest, There's nothing particularly "offensive" about this album, but that's the problem - it's in no way challenging. It's just, well... bland. The lyrics are pointless, the melodies are overly naive and easily forgotten, and the chord changes just plain uninspired.If you want a good bit of background music, do yourself a favour and buy this album, but personally I'd recommend something with a bit more flair like Gillian Welch's Revival.
Is the review positive or negative?
