Even though Avenged Sevenfold's first two albums clearly got them lumped into the emo camp, the California quintet always hinted at the heavy metal influence of bands like Iron Maiden. With their major-label debut CITY OF EVIL, not only have they fleshed out these tendencies via the intricate riffing of dual guitarists Zacky Vengeance and Synyster Gates, but they've begun to dabble with more intricate, prog-like song structures. And with singer M. Shadows recovering from vocal chord surgery, he employs a considerably more melodic approach.

The first half of CITY cleaves to what longtime fans have come to expect: dive-bombing call-and-response riffing and furious double-bass-drum attacks, peppering cuts like the soaring "Burn It Down" and the equally ferocious "Blinded in Chains." Following the power-ballad tendencies of "Seize the Day," with its subtle piano accompaniment and Shadow's full-bodied crooning, things get really interesting. Song lengths start to hover around the seven-to-nine-minute mark, and intriguing nuances come into play, like the boys' choir and 14-piece string section that defines the epic grandeur of "The Wicked End," and the Latin jam complete with flamenco flourishes that close out "Sidewinder."

5 stars Good Album But...
Don't get me wrong, this is a good cd and they're a talented group of guys but they are overated hardcore. The fact that every emo/gothic girl in America seems to worship this band is kinda of a turn off to the band, but please try it out... it's good. By the way... they're not the greatest band in the world and this definately isn't the greatest metal album of all time... listen to Sabbath or Slayer. Rock On!

City Of Evil album
CD $6.39  4.3 stars Audio Samples
This audio document of The Corrs' Dublin homecoming concert has pretty much everything fans of Irish pop could wish for, including an appearance from Bono in his earthly incarnation, fresh from an audience with President George W. Bush. It's to the band's credit that the charismatic singer fails to steal the show, despite creditable efforts via an anthemized version of Ryan Adams' beautifully downtempo "When the Stars Go Blue," and a great, leering rendition of Lee Hazlewood and Nancy Sinatra's "Summer ...

Rockapella
Nylons Rockapella CD  (1989) (Import) Canada

City Of Evil album
CD $15.25
The Nylons' performing career began in 1980 at a time when a cappella outfits were not in vogue. The fact that the Nylons were unlike any a cappella act on the scene made them stand out and earned them accolades and a devoted audience almost immediately. The band has existed in one form or another for more than 25 years, but it is the original quartet of Claude Morrison, Arnold Robinson, Paul Cooper, and Marc Connors that created their most beloved recordings. Rockapella, their fifth album (and final release by the original quartet) is a real mixed bag. By no means is it a bad album, but it sounds like the boys gave in to their record company's demands to make a commercial album and, because they attempted to make a contemporary album for 1989, it's over-produced and now sounds dated and of its time. It's a shame, really, because the Nylons' performances on this album sound spirited and electrified. The arrangement of "Drift Away" is almost embarrassing as it attempts to update their sound and add a silly intro that sounds more like Run-D.M.C. (sans the rapping). For a moment, "Love This Is Love" sounds like a distant cousin of Baltimora's "Tarzan Boy," which doesn't ruin the track but doesn't do it any favors, either. On paper, "Poison Ivy" sounds like it would be a perfect cover for the quartet, but it comes off as forced and ends up sitting there and twitching for three and a half minutes (that is, if you can last that long). Apart from those missteps, the rest of the album is smooth sailing. "(All I Have to Do Is) Dream" features a gorgeous, simple arrangement and is one of their best covers. "Busy Tonight" is a flawless Nylons gem with Connors' sweet vocals sounding as angelic as ever. "Wildfire" is another tour de force for Connors, but the sampled vocals and production suck a little life out of the song (which can also be said of "Count My Blessings" and the cover of the Parachute Club's "Rise Up"). ...
