A Day To Remember - Homesick

A Day To Remember mixes Emo/Hardcore/Metal and pulls it off very nice. Their style of music is also referred to as "pop mosh". And that description is very spot on. They mix great breakdowns and heavy riffs with "sweet" vocals. Their newest album release "Homesick" is their second release on the Victory Records lable. It's an album that feels very fresh. It kickstarts with the track "The Downfall of Us All", which is a very catchy song. It's a kind of song which i believe appeal a broad audience. And this is a feeling that saturates the whole album. Their previous album release "For Those Who Have Heart" which includes some Great tunes like "Fast Forward To 2012" and the cover of Kelly Clarkson´s smash-hit single "Since U Been Gone" feel more dirty, unprocessed and true. I´m sorry to say that they do not live up to the expectations i had on "Homesick". Sure there are some bright spots on the album, but not enough to convince me to buy it. But one thing i will admit is that some of their breakdowns is in my Top 10 list ever! So i will surely continue to follow their work closely.
