The Starting Line - Based on a True Story
 

Yeah, just downloaded this album off TorrentSpy, and I am mightily impressed. I've only listened through once, but it is a really nicely put together CD. They've definitely matured a bit, but they haven't abandoned their sound, which is really good. I said the same thing about Sugarcult when they released 'Palm Trees and Power Lines'. It's a weird thing to say in the midst of all this emo-hype, but it is really refreshing to see at least a couple of pop-punk bands keeping their sound regardless.

That said, there is a really nice 6-minute long acoustic/violin track on there called 'Photography', but it's so nice that I don't even care. :heart:

Fans of their first CD will like this album for sure, it is a really nice effort from the boys in TSL. Even after listening to the mp3s, it's definitely worth the purchase.

Track list:

1. Making Love to the Camera
2. Inspired by the $
3. Bedroom Talk
4. Surprise, Surprise
5. Photography
6. Autography
7. Artistic License
8. Stay Where I can See You
9. The B-List
10. The World
11. Ready
12. Cut! Print it

:heart: :heart: :heart: :heart:

Yeah been listening to it for the last couple of days. It is good. :love:

suprise, suprise is the best track.. the "you're goddamn right" bit is amazing.

i wish max from say anything did a bit more on the song "ready" :|

I'LL BE YOUR FRIEND IN HELL. UNTIL THEN, I DESPISE YOU

yeah, never really listened to them before.

I DL'ed that song "Hold On" a while ago cause I wanted to learn it on piano, but never really listened to thier stuff.

Will check this out though

Yep, pretty nice album. I love TSL :love:

Can you get anymore right?!? I think not, because I agree with you. (The part about Surprise, Surprise anyway.)

"Oh my god, let me describe to you this guy, his name is Ken,
he's in this band and writes such awful songs about me all the time...

...YOU'RE GODDAMN RIGHT!!!"

It's a real shame that they left out "Is it true, do you hate me?". I would have loved to have heard the recorded version of that song. Oh and has anybody seen the video for Bedroom Talk?!? Not bad...

Surprise, Surprise is the best song ever.

Downloaded it last night along with like 537958 other albums (actually, 5 or 6)

Good stuff.
