Phoenix - Zebrahead Before I start, I would like to say i'm a huge Zebrahead fan. So no-one better to give a detailed review then someone who knows the bands music well. The album came out in Japan at the beginning of the month and is due for a UK and US release a the beginning of August. So before you all obviously go to rush out and buy it =P. Read this review. Zebrahead are really one of those "Why aren't they more popular" sort of bands, they have all the right stuff to make it, but never quite make the big time. But this album just might, or will it just keep them in the same spot. This album really grew on me, while I liked it from the get go. At first I felt it wasn't quite as strong as 'Broadcast to the World', their previous album. But as I listened to it more I fell in love with it, and now in my opinion it's as strong an album as dare I say it the critically acclaimed 'MFZB' well yes I am. Definately their best album with the current singer Matty Lewis. The album starts off really strong with the heaviest song on the album 'HMP' (Heavy Metal Push-ups) The guitars, drums, everything is fast. A brilliant album opener, and probably my favourite song on the album. Greg's skills on the guitar have definately gotten better. Can't wait to hear this song live. 5/5 Next up is 'Hell Yeah' definately a more mainstrean, single type song, catchy riffs and vocals, typical stuff from Zebrahead, nothing special, I did enjoy the solo. 3.5/5 The more Metal influenced intro starts off the song 'Just the Tip' and a likely choice for the next single is a strong song. Ali's rapping fits in well, and the solo again was good, again with the typical catchy vocals from Matty. 4.5/5 The first single from the album 'Mental Health' is a very singley song, while not the best in the album, it's catchy and very easy to sing along to. Also slightly reminds me of Rescue Me for some reason. The rapping here is probably best best in the album, must like past Zebrahead songs it's full of energy. 4.5/5 'The Juggernauts' takes things a bit slower. Ali's rapping slips a little bit. His voice fits in really well in the high energy songs, but falls short on the slower songs. But the song really picks up at the chorus, very catchy and definately going to be a favourite at gigs to sing along. Probably a good choice for the next single. Would of been a 5 if it wasn't for the first verse's rapping. 4.5/5 Just a meh song 'Death by Disco' is. While not bad, it feels a bit like filler, It's back to Ali's high energy rapping, with the catchy chorus. The typical Zebrahead combination. 3/5 'Be Careful What you Wish For' has a good Bass intro, and starts to show Matty's voice showing his potenial, definately a step up. The part after the second chorus is really enjoyed. 4/5 The song starts out with the SOS signal, which fits the name of the song 'Morse Code is For Suckers' the slow build up intro is really nice. A catchy bass line. Ali during the bridge is a bit...eh..but generally a good song. 4/5 'Ignite' while it has a good start, the rest of the song doesn't impress me much. Felt like a filler song. 3/5 A bloodly long title here. 'Mike Dexter is God, Mike Dexter is a Role Model, Mike Dexter is an ***hole' A really feel good song here. I love singing along while driving to this song. It really puts a smile on your face, a song about wasting the day with someone you care about. Just a great song to listen to. Ali's rapping is a bit plan in the first verse, but the song is still a, 5/5 'Junkie and the Halo' isn't as strong song, almost feels like a B-side frm BtoW. Good, but not great. 3/5 I loved the intro to 'Brixton', while the rest isn't quite as awesome, it's still a strong song with a good rift. Just a good song to shout to, also Matty's vocals is strong here. 4/5 The more serious 'Hit the Ground' is a great song. Ali's rapping is hit or miss, but Matty's vocals is the best on the album. He tries a different style, more louder and it really shows, him in the chorus and solo is great. 5/5 'Two Wrongs Don't Make a Right, but Three Rights Make a Left', Yep another random title, and a song back to Zebrahead's silly side with lyrics saying "Bow Chicka Bow Wow" a song about forgetting a ex, but still not quite forgetting her. Just a catchy song to sing along to. 4/5 'All for None, And None for All', I really enjoyed the rifts in this song, the more fast paced more ska guitars sounds really nice. 4.5/5 'Sorry, but Your friend is Hot's intro is going to get people jumping at a gig. While not really strong, it's just a good song. 4/5 In my opinion the album is on par with MFZB. A really strong album, with more rememorial tracks then Broadcast to the World. While it starts off really well, it does dry up a little around the middle but picks up at the end. This album sees everyone progress, Greg and Ben's guitaring, Ed's druming and Matty's vocals have all improved, even if it's just by a little bit. But Ali's rapping can be hit or miss in the slower songs. He fits in really well in the faster songs like 'HMP', but falls flat in songs like 'The Juggernauts.' It is just what you would expect from Zebrahead, catchy, easy to sing along to and just feel good music. Very drivable music. While it might not attract many non-fans. It will definately statify the fans, and won't disappoint. Will they hit the mainstream again? It's hard to say, depends on the marketing and what other songs they release. Any fans of pop/punk and have not heard of this band, give them a try. Overall - 4.5/5 For Fans of - Bowling for Soup Reel Big Fish Sum 41 Must listen/Download - HMP The Juggernauts Mike Dexter is God, Mike Dexter is an Idol, Mike Dexter is an ***hole Hit the Ground.
I know of you. A familiar name in the portal to me. Yes WMM is limiting, but just stick at it, great things can be made with it...sure mainly in the emotional department, but they can.
Oh about as much as GTAIV infects children worldwide. =O
Love how ridicious the concept of the thread it. ^^ Little white sig place is so important.
Carry on making videos like that (well try different styles) but keep making videos constantly and you will get noticed more. If people see your name crop up more they are more likely to notice you. You have skill, and are a great editor. You deserve to be known. And I've fixed the problem with the name.
HMP - Zebrahead
Should be working now.
Probably not, I can't change the ads that appear in Portal, the whole thing is run by another site, all we do is manage the videos uploaded here and the member who sign up.
Every week, I scour the video portal's latest submissions and pick my top five favorites. Just because you don't make it into the top five does not mean that you're video wasn't good. We just have so many good videos that they're hard to choose from! Sorry everything is so behind, I was on holiday, and as I went to post this yesterday, the died had a heart attack. But anyway, I would like to thank RvR for doing the Top 5 for one week, I liked the choices he made and I really appricate it. Here is the T [top5number1]8c76370d-7121-4f29-a367-9acd0103e3f8[/top5number1] This Week's Winner: Fayt | View Video Song: For the True Story by Sonic Adventure 2 OST Oh my ****ing god. A video on the portal hasn't blown me away like this in a while. This is the next step for the editors here. Use photoshop, it is your friend they go together so well if used properly. Some parts seemed repeatitivebut that is nitpicking and there is no story, but considering the music, there isn't much need for one. I loved every minute of here. My favourite video on the portal so far. Congrats. 2. Submitted By: EvilMeRc8 | View Video Song: Whisper in the Dark by Skillet A solid video, good flow timing, everything we would expect from you, the part of 0:49 ruined the flow a bit, and felt too slow compared to the style of editting you did before it. But beyond that. Really liked it. 3. Submitted By: False Visions Studios | View Video Song: Breathe Into Me by Red Well Red is a popular band choice here, good thing I used it before it got generic. XD I loved the intro, bit long, but at least it looked very nice. Only gripe about the MEP was that all the editting styles together all with their own timing style, make it seem cramped and almost a bit messy, also some of the masking and effects during the slow part. Yes Masking is fantasitc but don't abuse it. I found the video very effects heavy, nothing wrong with that, but there is a time a place, use it for really fast paced songs, songs like this you need more drive then effects. Sorry for the small rant, I really did enjoy the video. 4. Submitted By: Yuna784 | View Video Song: What about now by Daughtry Another solid video, again for a slow song like this, there were some pointless effects like at 0:15, also some of the flow was eh, but beyond that, it was well made. 5. Submitted By: WGreyB | View Video Song: Wherever You Will Go by The Calling A good emotional video, can't complain about the editting much, but yet it gives me an...meh impression, because it's nothing new. Still didn't stop me from enjoying it. Oh as a final word, **** that smiley advert at the top of most videos, it annoys the crap out of me. Hello, hello, HELLO. Yes I get it hello to you to, now shut up, i'm trying to watch videos. Hope you enjoy them all, and keep submitting! Maybe your video will show up here next time!
