Quality vocals meets choppy editing

Released April 21 on Warner Bros. Records, Meg & Dia's latest album, Here, Here and Here really lacks the professional attributes that we have come to expect from quality producer Howard Benson (My Chemical Romance, All American Rejects).

The vocals, however, are definitely on point. Melodic and fully functional, Meg Frampton (guitar, vocals), Dia Frampton (lead vocals), Nick Price (drums), Carlo Gimenez (guitar), and Jonathan Snyder (bass), definitely are the underdogs when it comes to the rock/pop music seen.

Don't underestimate them. Even though you can't understand half of the album, that is said to be a journey through the past few years of life for this band.

You can definitely tell that they have a point, even if you can't see it immediately.

Recommendation? The lyrics aren't something you would want your 5-year-old Hannah Montana daughter to listen to.

But your 15-year-old emo girl might like the choppy editing and off-putting lyrics.

I respect your opinion and don't know much about editing so I'll give you that but off-putting lyrics? Criticize everything else but please don't say that. (Continued…)
