Lovex - Pretend or Surrender, 2008

or „Pregnant or Surrender“ :D as I once read
The new album is the best theyÂ’ve ever released, at least for me. There are more songs than whatÂ’s usual and still all the songs are different to each other, they all tell different story and have different sounds and I feel like with this album, Lovex opened up more for the rest of the world, the guitar riffs are excellent and yeah, they grew up ro great musicians.

o1) If SheÂ’s Near
~ I like the „fist fight“ in the song „... so please, take me out of here...“ makes You sing along ~

o2) Turn
~ the beginning sounds like Gemini Five ‚Flesh for fantasy‘, this song remins me of all the memories that are gone; I love how Theon pronouce „... stay with me...“ ~

o3) Take a Shot
~ itÂ’s the first single but itÂ’s too different to the rest that I was almost scared, when I heard this song that the album will be the same old Lovex style, but fortunately this song is something like a bridge between the past and new Lovex sound ~

o4) Different Light
~ my lovely one, the simple keyboards fits to it, I like the chorus from the ‚lyrics point of view‘ ~

o5) Writings On The Wall
~ I like the arrangement of the song and the second half of the song, like the guitar could speak :)~

o6) Time And Time Again
~ my fave one, You know I love those ‚sweet‘ songs but I love the lyrics and the composition, the feeling like it’s a movie song, should be on a soundtrack to something ~

o7) Belonging To No One
~ yummy song :D I love the sound even though the title, I don’t agree with it; „... I’m a servant...“ great, another palvelija or servant in Essentia lyrics ~

o8) My Isolation
~ he really pronounce „sadows“ ? if yes, then it’s typical for Finns and it’s lovelyyyy; reminds me of Entwine ‚Chameleon halo‘, I know, it’s totally different but this was first what came up to my mind ~

o9) Rid Of Me
~ funny, first I almost burst into laughter with the beginning of teh song, the Japanese sound, hehe very experimental, but in the end, I like this song and the ‚Japanese‘ sound make this song special ~

1o) Ordinary Day
~ I had a feeling that this song is there just by accident, it seems like it has nothing special what can bring to people... BUT, it has and thatÂ’s the solo part which is amazing and thatÂ’s the reason for me to listen to this song ~

11) End Of The World
~ my second fave, but actually the lyrics doesn’t fit the sound, I mean, I feel it like that; the lyrics reminds me of 30 seconds to Mars ‚A beautiful lie‘ and The Rasmus ‚Last Generation‘ but still this one is different ~

12) End Of The World (Outro)
~ I love this, itÂ’s so desperate but yet full of beauty ~

13) Save Me
~ the piano part at teh beginning is pretty contrasting to the rest, „... save me to save me from myself...“ ahhh ~

14) Love and Lust
~ nice title *devil smile*, nice drums ~
