Lupe Fiasco - LASERS

Great album
Click to expand...

Seriously? I've been looking forward to it for about 3 years, and I was really disappointed. There are a couple decent songs on it, but it sounds way over produced and it sounds too much like every other pop rap album out there.

His other two CDs are great from top to bottom. I thought LASERS was a big step back.

August Burns Red announced their new album "Leveler" due out for June.

I won't lie, my musical tastes are vast & diverse. Plus I simply love their drummer - guy's fantastic.

The new Pains of Being Pure at Heart album is amazing!

I haven't been able to get past the incredibly emo band name yet. I've heard the first single on satellite radio though and it sounds like the best Smashing Pumpkins material since Siamese Dream.

This is a great album.

It's the best of what roots reggae can be, and reminds me of Confrontation or Uprising by Bob Marley. Stephen writes or co-writes all of the songs not written by Bob Marley on the album and plays one or more instruments on all of the songs as well. I think he has the best singing voice of all the Marley kids (Julian is probably closest competition), and the songs where he teams up with dancehall legends Capleton, Spragga and his brother Damian are all great (especially Tight Ship). If you like reggae, this is a great buy (as were Mind Control and Mind Control Accoustic version)
