![]() To me leadsinger Brent Smith is mostly responsable for the mood and sound changes throughout the album. For me the album's sound marks a nice fusion of "Crossover" and "Old School Metal" with a range that will include everything between "Soundgarden" and "Pink Cream 69 (also PC69)". "Us And Them" was my first Shinedown album and I was pleasantly surprised! I found bits and pieces from sounds of other bands that I like to listen to mixed well and executed brilliantly. SHINEDOWN RULES!!! Vollständige Rezension lesen Buy it here or better yet, go and buy it now at your local FYE, Best Buy, or Wal-Mart. Buy Us and Them AND Leave a Whisper! My preference is Us and Them but a lot of my friends like Leave a Whisper. Trus t me, you wont regret it for a second. If they come in a 200 to 300 mile radius of my house, I'll be there to see them perform! If you get a chance, go and see them! Tour dates can be viewed on their website You will NEVER forget the first time you see them live. I went to Atlanta to see them again on the Sno-Core tour where they co-headlined with Seether and that concert confirmed my love for them. I went to see them open for 3 Doors Down in Columbus, GA a few months ago and they were incredible! The day after the concert I went and bought Leave a Whisper and then I had to painstakingly wait for 3 months for the best X-mas present EVER! Us and Them has literally not come out of my CD player since X-mas and will stay there for a long time from now. This is the most underrated band I have ever known. This CD should please the younger rockers as well as the older rockers like me. The popularity of this CD and band should only increase over time. There are a lot of good songs on this CD that radio stations will event ually discover and play. Don't get me wrong, some of the songs are best heard loud like: Heroes, Save Me, and Yer Magesty. The lyrics are understandable, not some angry sounding guy screaming at the top of his lungs with a loud head-banging bass guitar causing your speakers to wonder what they did wrong to deserve that. I bought this CD and I listen to it over and over again. I usually can't find any new rock that I like enough to buy. ![]() Us And Them is a combination hard rock and not so hard rock which reminds me of classic albums of the past. ![]() I am a 40 something guy who generally listens to classic 70's and 80's rock and after hearing a couple of Shinedown songs they caught my attention.
