SO UNIQUE,
By Dan "dan" (Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Billy Talent (Audio CD)
This cd sparked my interest in consuming music again. Since I bought this cd about 2 months ago, I have bought about 9 or 10 other albums(Jimmy Eat World(2), Thursday(2), Brand new, Tacking Back Sunday, AFI, Saves the Day, Incubus.) AFI came close but only 1 album has out done Billy Talent and that was Clarity by Jimmy Eat World, which is probably the most revolutionary and life-changing cd I have ever heard.......anyways, back to BT. Ben's screaming may take a while to get used to, but it definetely grows on you. After a few weeks I didn't even notice his voice, all I heard was the amazing music. Below are my favorite tracks:Prisoners of Today(favorite by a long shot) Honorable Mentions: Lies, Standing in the Rain

Unique Sound - Punk at it's best!,
By madbutler "findastyle" (Toronto, ON Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Billy Talent (Audio CD)
I don't normally listen to punk music, but this band has brought something truly unique to the genre. They have a unique melody I wouldn't mix with any other band. They stand out in a big clump of mainstream punk bands that sounds the same. The guitars bring a sound that just makes me jump and enjoy myself. The lyrics are so much better than just angry punk. My best picks: "River Below", "The Ex", "Prisoners of Today". I'd recommend them to anyone who wants a taste of something new. At one point when I was listening to them, a thought passed through my mind "if these guys keep doing what they're doing [and forgive me for this blunt comparison], they could become The Beatles of punk." I'm not sure if anyone's earned this title yet. But for a new, fresh sounds, this is your band!

Just Plain Amazing,
By ToxicTearyEyes (Lawndale, Ca) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Billy Talent (Audio CD)
This C.D is nothing short of perfection. Every track is filled with energy. How a band can go from fun up beat tracks like try honesty and line & sinker to an emotional/suicidal punk ballad like Nothing to Lose is just one of the many examples of why you should own this record. When i first heard the name, i must have thought to my self over and over again "this album is gunna suck", (my first impression was weak country music i.e billy crawford) but hell, everyones entitled to make mistakes. Bottom line, this is a great band, and with more exposure and a better label, they could be on top of the pop punk world, like blink 182, green day and sum 41.
