Thrice - The Artist In The Ambulance
Thrice's masterpiece is perhaps the best combination of fantastic songwriting, powerful lyrics, and awesome musicianship I have ever heard from a four piece rock band. Sure, some may be put off by lead singer Dustin Kensrue's throaty screams and not quite yet mature singing voice, but you can't deny the passion the man has. Subtle Christian references will sure be a treat for those so inclined, but the lyrics aren't preachy whatsoever. Placed firmly in the middle of Thrice's ever growing discography, The Artist In The Ambulance represents to me the best of Thrice: enough of the old hardcore and metal stylings of their early releases mixed also with the songwriting strength of their newer albums. Simply put, it's a must have for any fan of rock music. Check it out!

A Day To Remember - Homesick
They've been described as cliche, generic, and a bad mix of genres but I see this band as just having a whole lot of FUN. Seriously, if not one chorus on this album sticks out to you, you have no soul. If you love pop-punk hooks and breakdowns, there is simply no better band in the genre. Even if you look down upon those genres, there is some serious songwriting here. Glad to see this band has finally hit their stride; their next album should be a masterpiece. Listen and enjoy!
