Sudsonbleeker – Blue October - Foiled Lyrics 15 years ago
I completely agree, this album is surely underrated and though I have quite an eclectic taste for music there's no doubt this album is in my top 5 of all time and quite possibly number 1.
A few things to add to your review...first off I think lyrically this album does blow most others out of the water. The degree of honesty is one thing, that it sounds more like a personal journal than a musical endavour, but also the vocabulary like "Floatsam" and "Jetsam".
I also really enjoyed that although the songs are well crafted lyrically, they're just as inspired musically. I find that the instruments really seem to come through with emotion as well. If you remove the lyrics you can still get a great feel for all the emotions and tone of the song. And to that end I found all the songs flowed well together. The album I thought might have even been a 'concept' of sorts following from the time the artist meets a girl, becomes friends, falls in love, discovers that he may never get her, and settling for being 'just a friend' but finding more to that in the end. It really does play out like a story. Fantastic album and wonderfully written review

Fall Out Boy – This Ain't a Scene, It's an Arms Race Lyrics 17 years ago
Anyone read the comment left here about Spin by Taking Back Sunday being directed toward FOB? Regardless of if that is fact or fiction, it's interesting to see there are some paralells, especially the 'crashing the party" idea where TBS had written "this is where the party's at" To me, it just seems like it could be another 'spin' on the song...and besides, fued between bands often help to sell records on both sides, hence the "and I don't really care which side wins as long as the room keeps singing..." part.
Like I said, not fact, not necessarily fiction, just a thought

Hedley – Johnny Falls Lyrics 17 years ago
Hmmm, is it "Don't Push me Don't Blame me" it sort of sounds like it might be "Don't Push me Don't Pkay me" ? Just a thought

Metric – Poster of a Girl Lyrics 18 years ago
So has anyone seen the video? Playing on the old Doppelganger theory that everyone in the world has an exact duplicate and some believe if you ever encounter your doppelganger that you'll instantly die. (I'm not sure why exactly you would die, but that's the theory...perhaps intense shock of seeing someone that looks exactly like you)

Northstar – Like A.M. Radio Lyrics 18 years ago
Sounds more like Alcohol rather than drugs.
Down fire, warm up our veins
Until we forget all our names
Usually when you drink straight it burns and usually gives you a warm feeling inside...warming up your veins, your blood, making you feel warm inside. The surgery at night is probably talking about cutting yourself or contemplating suicide, also the itching trigger finger. I mean just because a song mentions veins doesn't guarantee that it must be about heroin. If there was the case, and it always meant that, then it would really be as interesting.

Senses Fail – Bite To Break Skin Lyrics 18 years ago
FallOutBoyGirl4Life Interesting you mention Hawthorne Heights...This song has a Legion of Doom Mix on the Underworld Evolution Soundtrack which I think is actually even better than this fabulous version. LOD also remixes the song When Do I Stab Myself in the Ears by Hawthorne Heights on that Soundtrack as well....Puscifer, Chester Bennington, the entire Soundtrack is so innovative and most people will probably never discover it, quite a shame...
