3x perfect

of all the albums i've heard, the following 3 are the best. most albums have a few great songs, a few nice songs, and the rest are filler, second rate music, or the songs just sound out of place for some reason or another. these albums though, are great and consistent from beginning to end. at least they are to me.

3. the city sleeps in flames - scary kids scaring kids
the keyboards are very prominent in their songs and i think that's what made them so special. too bad in their latest album they decided to become more normal and blend their keyboards into the background. such a waste of talent.

2. nightmare of you - nightmare of you
go listen to them and you'll see why. their entire album is just excellent, every single thing in it is great and not a damn waste of space and time. there's really not one boring bit in it.

1. a vacant affair - a vacant affair
it's only an EP but oh my, it has everything that makes an album great:
fast songs
slow songs
fast songs that turn into slow songs
slow songs that turn into fast songs
screaming
sad lyrics
angry lyrics
wonderful guitar parts (3 guitarists!)

i didn't like it at first, but now i've grown wiser. sadly one guitarist left the band so now there's only 2 left, and it always sounds like that special something is missing when i see them play. they're releasing their full-length album soon and i really hope that it'll be as good for my own aural pleasure.
