Papa Roach - Metamorphosis

[JE]

Seriously, give this a listen. I know everything else this band has done is utter shit, but they've completely ditched that sound and gone with a hard rock style that sounds like a fusion of Sixx A.M., Motley Crue, and Trapt (so that's why this band was invited to Cruefest...), and it works in a huge way. Early 2009 album of the year contender.

If you only want to listen to a few tracks, check out Change Or Die, Lifeline, Had Enough, Into The Light (Mick Mars does the second guitar solo, and it's aces), and Nights Of Love.

Let's hope the album is better then the cover

Looks Jonas Brothers esq

True, but even rapcore Papa Roach shits all over Jonas Brothers.

Shitting on a stick is better then the Jonas Brothers

I agree with JE here. I love the album, been listening to it since about a week before it came out. It might be my album of the year right now if it wasn't for the fact that Blue October released an absolute gem of an album the same day this came out.

I probably have P.O.S. and Thursday as my top two right now. Especially since Brand New, Killswitch and Thrice probably release albums this year, it'll be tough to top those. God Forbid's new album is great as well.

I didn't include Hollywood Whore on the original tracks to check out list (the version I originally DL'ed was real shitty quality), but definitely give this a listen. Probably the best track on the album, save Into The Light.

My fave off the album is probably March Out of the Darkness, followed by Lifeline. Hollywood Whore is definitely up there though, great tune.
