Hey all,
I've been obsessed with Shinedown for quite some time now, and have been anxiously awaiting the release of their new album (it comes out in stores tomorrow, but is already on iTunes and Zune Pass.
With the Sound of Madness having 6 singles on one album (and the best song on the whole album, "Call Me," never actually even being a single), one would have been absolutely insane to think Amaryllis could live up to that standard. Yes, one would expect it to be good, but Sound of Madness may very well be one of the best modern rock albums of my life.
I'm the sort of person that generally needs to listen to things multiple times before I finally begin to fully appreciate them. After 1 listen of the album, it was already far exceeding my expecations, and after a second playthrough, I honestly think it has already lived up to the Sound of Madness standard.
If anybody else has listened to the album, let me know what you think!
Money can't buy happiness. Just video games, which make me happy.
