Artist Review: The Cab

Hey guys! So for this post I will be reviewing one of a recently discovered (by me) artist, called The Cab. 
I'm not all too familiar with the band, but from the songs I've heard by them, they are very good at what they do. I've only heard a couple songs by one of their famous albums Symphony Soldier. That album was released in 2011. While they are, as I understand, more of a pop rock/alternative rock/pop punk kind of band, Symphony Soldier is more of a love album, while their other album is more, what they're known for.

While I'm not the biggest fan out there, I always enjoy their style of music and their way of telling a story.

The Cab has been replacing more and more members of the original band, except for the "creator", the one and only, Alexander DeLeon. Although Alexander is pretty much permanent, (in his own band) the members are very unstable and tend to come and go.

While they only released 2 albums, they definitely know how to say stuff in a different and new way, and I still find their songs very inspiring and always love listening to their ideas.

The Cab has been around since 2004, not the oldest band but definitely not the worst either. They originated in Las Vegas and earned the nick-name “The Band You Need To Know” from Alternative Press magazine.
That's all for this post! See you next time!

Song Review: Walk On Water Or Drown - Mayday Parade

Lets be honest, the number one drive for creating or producing music, is something to do with love. BUT, this song has a different perspective or way to tell the story. In this review, we will be talking about Walk On Water Or Drown by Mayday Parade. This song doesn't express so much as love as it does the trust between love. While I am not a huge fan of Mayday Parade (total lie), I do really enjoy the view and way they explained this story. While there are some religious references, the song is more about trying to develop trust between the two while he figures out a way out of his emotions, and let's be honest, the ones you love are usually the ones you want to trust and talk to first (because who wants to talk to parents?).

We've all had moments where we just need to be with those who we love, weather it be a friend, boyfriend/girlfriend, parent, anyone really.
While this song is all about trust with love going hand in hand (HAHAHA I'm so good with puns, really though, that was horrible), this band is known for a lot of love songs written in ways people usually don't think of.
Just a personal reference, I've found this song VERY relatable at some points in my life, hence why I've decided to write about it today.

Song Review: Teenagers - My Chemical Romance

Okay, so although I listen to a lot of artist and various kinds of music, I'm really not one to listen to a lot of My Chemical Romance and songs like that. BUT, I just find this song very humorous and I thought I'd share it with you.
Teenagers is a song that features teenagers as the victim of society where they will be fixed into more of an adult figure. Until then, teenagers are viewed as scary and disobedient (which in my view, isn't far off from what I see at school). The song talks about the nicknames, drugs, clothes, and "violent" nature of a teenager, which is probably why most people are scared of us (Mwahahahahahahaha fear us!!).
Although I didn't exactly grow up in a disobedient and frowned-upon-for-our-uncontrolled-children society, I have seen that side of the teenage population.

I feel that My Chemical Romance is a very good band with loads of talent, but I never was attached to them as a music addict. I don't know how many of you reading this like that band but no judgement! Music is music, I am here on the dictation of my English grade and because I gotta have a better blog than my friends.
AAAaaaannnnnyyyyywaaaaaayyyyy........ MCR, from New Jersey with a group of 5 rockers. Their latest album launched March 25th of last year, the album is called May Death Never Stop You. For those who love the band, ya'll better tell me if it's a great album, I might review it and get obsessed.
That's enough for this post, stay tuned for the next review which I should write so I don't fail my class XD. Later guys!

Song Review: Mad at Myself - Issues

This song review will be focused on the song created by Issues called Mad at Myself. The song expresses a feeling of regret of  his actions toward his girlfriend. In the chorus he implies he was only making choices based off of his wants instead of his relationship ethics. Like most songs, it doesn't say exactly what happened prior to making the song, but there are a lot of clues that can give you ideas.
Like billions and billions of other songs, this song is about love. But it has a weird genre twist; most "screamo" songs express only anger, revenge, regret, and occasionally confusion. This song on the other hand, has only regret and crave for an earlier time.
The band Issues isn't a widely known band, but their talent isn't any worse than what makes a good group. The band has 6 members with Tyler Carter as the "group leader"

I will be starting to post more and more reviews and songs within this genre, sorry if you're not particularly interested but I will be trying to keep my blog well rounded and expressive through my posts.
