Maybe sticking to one rock genre wasn't such a good idea. | Posted June 04, 2012
Remember Write This Down's self titled debut album that had a mix of rock styles? Well, for their sophomore effort, Lost Weekend, they've gone in a more hard rock/punk direction. While I do like the fact that this album isn't trying to sound similar to the last one, the style does get a bit tiresome as the album moves along. The first half kind of burns you out with one Sum 41/Rise Against sounding song after another, but the second half does mix things up with a couple of slow ballad tracks that are a welcome addition to what would otherwise be a monotonous album.
Lost Weekend changes things by sticking to one rock genre but overdoes things by having almost the exact same song playing over and over again. I still liked what I heard but I feel like the genre skipping of the first album produced much more memoriability than this album.
