N*E*R*D Seeing Sounds Album Review

Man, I've been a fan of N*E*R*D for a while now. The first album, In Search of...., got me through high school. I really connected with that one. The last album, Fly or Die, was an introduction to a different genre of rock that I never listened to before. I would like to think that it sparked an interest that made me want divulge myself into every type of music I could get my hands on. I've been waiting for this new album to drop for four years now. No matter how much I like these guys, I'm still going to give an objective review.

1. "Time for Some Action" - This song starts off with an interlude with Pharrell describing his first time seeing sounds when he was seven. Cool beans.... This is a mellow song with a crazy hook.

2. "Everyone Nose"

3. "Windows" - First off it sounds like a song from the Rolling Stones era. In fact, this song could have been on the last album. The percussions in the hook are so catchy.

4. "Anti Matter" - I really don't know what to say about this one. Its alright.....

5. "Spaz" - In one of my previous posts I said that this was better performed live, and that it lacks a certain energy. Well, its growing on me, but they still could have used live instruments to record this track. By this point in the album I'm still looking for the "amazingness" that I've been waiting for.

6. "Yea You" - THE AMAZINGNESS!!! This is a nice jazzy track.

7. "Sooner or Later" - Starts off slow, but picks up eventually. It gets very classic rock towards the end. I like it. This is a solid track.

8. "Happy" - Sounds like something Avril Lavigne would do.

9. "Kill Joy" - Sounds like some dance rock from the 70s.

10. "Love Bomb" - More amazingness.

11. "You Know What" - More dance rock. This one kinda reminds me of the music on Kenna's album Make Sure They See My Face.

12. "Laugh About It" - This is somewhat of a cliche way to end an album. Its like "Ha ha ha ha. Lets reminisce on all the crazy things we've been through."

It hurts to say this [especially since I have the N*E*R*D logo tattooed on my wrist], but I'm mildly disappointed with this album. I remember in a article a while back Pharrell was saying how he wanted to get back to the chaotic sound from the first album, I don't think they succeeded. Seeing Sounds is more or less a continuation of N*E*R*D's last album, Fly or Die. This album doesn't even have any hidden tracks on it. I'm still gonna buy this on Tuesday when it drops only because I feel obligated [especially since I have the N*E*R*D logo tattooed on my wrist!!!!]. Seeing Sounds in stores this Tuesday June 10, 2008.

New Joint from Lloyd

"Girls Around the World" is the new single from Lessons in Love, the third studio album by Lloyd. It is scheduled for release on July 22, 2008. Lloyd stated that he would be writing and producing on this album. Ludacris, Fabolous, Snoop Dogg, Nelly, Danah Lewis, Rocko, and Lil Wayne are stated to be confirmed guests on the album. Is it safe to say that Hype Williams out-did himself???!

New Solange

Solange Knowles’s music video for “I Decided”,has finally debuted. The track is the first single from the singer’s upcoming ‘Sol-Angel and the Hadley St. Dreams’ album. The Cd is schedule for an August 26 release. I really don't think this is a bad song, I just hate the fact that her voice sounds so coarse. I don't remember it being like that before.

Parisian Gunflower

Spotted on the streets of Paris, is a vivid graffiti piece appropriately titled “Nature’s Revenge”. The artist, who is unknown, has designed a fully bloomed flower with guns as the petals. Maybe this is what the world is coming to. Maybe all these heat waves, earthquakes, and hurricanes are nature's way of fighting back.
