Plain White T's

-lets revisit the history of the band plain white t's. their debut album "stop" was a very anthem filled songs about life and relationships that would appeal to mostly to people in highschool or perhaps young college students.

this being said because the album talks alot about doing something with your life at pivotal moments and of course relationships.

next, came their highly anticipated "all that we needed" album and it had more of a 80's power pop/dance sound to it along with some of the songs possibly being mistaken for the band "the cars".

it had a more diverse vibe to it and i could see it appealing to highschoolers and most definitely college students.

than this summer they released "hey there delilah ep" which was a solid ep which could appeal to many young adults with its mature sound to it.

i figured since the ep was so good, that their debut for major label, hollywood records, would be fantastic. well, just the opposite folks. the plain white t's have went backwards on "every second counts".

i mean way backwards...back even before their debut album "stop". i say this because the whole theme of the album is about relationships, relationships, and relationships.

after about halfway through the album it sounds like you're listening to a broken record. OKAY, I GET IT! some girl screwed you over, and then you screwed her over and now you really don't like each other anymore.

the lyrics is what really kills this album along with the cliche songs. the lyrics in their first single, "hate (i really don't like you)" is a perfect example of this.

it cringes to repeat the chorus so i'm not even going to do it. i mean, the lyrics sound like junior high drama instead of maturer songs about life which were in their previous albums.

bottom line, they went to writing songs that highschoolers and young adults could relate to, to writing songs that junior high kids could relate to. i'm sorry, but that's not progression.

i guess another word you could throw at these guys is "sellout" because that could very well be the case here. i'm just going to pretend they didn't release this and enjoy their other albums.
