let's cheers to this album download Rockfreaks.net. As you may have noticed, our by now mythical British/Chinese writer BL recently returned miraculously to re-reinforce us in our constant struggle to keep up with current releases. Frankly, I thought he might have been eaten by dogs in some ironic twist of fate or something, and hence AP and I had actually started to scavenge his list of pending reviews. Most of what I took from there, I've let him have back upon his return, but one record I've held onto, namely "Let's Cheers To This", the sophomore album from Californian post-hardcore quintet Sleeping With Sirens. Admittedly, I've been sort of sceptical coming into this record, because I never quite got on with the band's debut, "With Ears To See And Eyes To Hear", because while I felt it had some good moments, it also had way too many occasions on which it catered to the scene's lowest common denominator, including super generic breakdowns, unnecessary use of autotune and moments of rather lame electronics. That's why I've been quite surprised to see that the changes Sleeping With Sirens have made from album to album are almost exclusively smart. Basically, all the stupid shit has gone. No tuner, no cheap keys, no idiotcore breaks. Rest assured, there are still heavy parts here and there, but they are shorter and less disruptive to the flow of the songs. They actually made me think briefly of Emery, which is all ways a good sign, so halleluja. In place of the gimmicks, SWS's expression now rides primarily on a steady stream of excellent vocal melodies from singer Kellin Quinn. Quinn has a remarkable voice, that can be as shrill and high pitched as A Skylit Drive's Michael Jagmin but is also capable of a strained, powerful croon alá Jonny Craig, and moreover, Quinn probably has better articulation than both, making it even easier to latch onto his many good refrains. To prove this point, one could really highlight any of the album's first five songs, as each are plenty catchy to stick to your mind well after the album's run its course, but my first pick would have to be "If You Can't Hang", which sees Quinn spitting out words blazing fast, singing "You're such a pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty face, but you turned into a pretty big waste of my time" with the kind of attitude that could likely attract some Pierce The Veil fans. The most immediately memorable moment of the record however, comes in the super emo "A Trophy Father's Trophy Son", which ends with an absolute winner of a melody in the refrain going "Is this what you call a family?" . Still, while both of those songs are awesome, the overall favourite has to be "Your Nickel Ain't Worth My Dime", which progresses brazenly from an r'n'b type verse, into a power-rock chorus followed later by a kickass guitar solo - think Closure In Moscow's "A Night At The Spleen" here. Let's pump the breaks for one moment though, because there are still a few minor things worth observing, which the band would do well to work on when making their next album. Firstly, if the album title or the lyrical bits I've already posted haven't already clued you in, I've got to say that the lyrics are by no stretch particularly profound or well thought out, and as always, it can seem kind of cheesy when a band like this sings with constant emotion while the lyrics seem a little trivial. Secondly, the reason I haven't spent much time describing the instrumental side to the band, is that it sort of takes the backseat in a very Emarosa-type way on this record. It serves brilliantly, backing up Quinn and flaring up in solos and heavy influxes on occasion, but it's still his singing that will make you remember the songs, rather than any particularly tasty riffs brought in by new guitarist Jack Fowler (formerly of Broadway). Lastly, even Quinn delivers at least one misstep, when he reaches for notes that are high even for him, in the album-closing title track, and for once sounds a bit grating. However, like I said, I do consider these observations rather minor in the grander scheme of things, because the wealth of catchy hooks on this record alone are enough to make it appear as a very consistent and re-listenable album. Hell, even the token ballad "All My Heart" works quite well, even if it sits a bit oddly between "Let's Cheers To This" and the rest of the record. More importantly though, this album showcases a band that has both a very talented vocalist, great melodies, and seemingly also a knack for - and will to - ridding themselves of any elements to their sound which may tie them down with their more generic contemporaries. All this considered, I don't see what's not to like. Let's Cheers to This. On its second album, Let's Cheers to This, Orlando-by-way-of-Grand Rapids quintet Sleeping with Sirens has replaced two-fifths of the outfit, with lead guitarist Brandon McMaster replaced by Jack Fowler, and rhythm guitarist Rick Trombino by Jesse Lawson. (The rhythm section of bassist Justin Hills and drummer Gabe Barham remains in place.) But the focus remains on the high tenor vocals of Kellin Quinn. Call Sleeping with Sirens post-hardcore if you like, but Quinn is a closet singer/songwriter, and even when the guitars are screaming (and some of the background vocals are, too), he is musing in his reedy, often girl-like voice about his feelings. He reflects on family in "A Trophy Father's Trophy Son," and he pleads in "Postcards and Polaroids," "Before you go, could you love me just a little bit more?" Most of the time, the band blasts along, heedless of its lead singer's heart-on-his-sleeve sentiments, but they still come through, and that actually may expand the appeal of this band to a female constituency usually out of reach for groups that rock this hard.

Origin of Symmetry (XX Anniversary RemiXX) Abbey Road (Super Deluxe Edition) With 50 million copies sold, Back in Black is the second best-selling album of all time just behind Michael Jackson’s thriller. Who could have imagined that AC/DC’s seventh studio album would pick up so many awards considering their charismatic lead-singer Bon Scott’s premature death after the release of Highway to Hell. The album marked the end of their first chapter but the beginning of their second which fans of the Australian band today continue to relish… Thirty-four years ago, Nirvana was born: the most unexpected punk swerve of the end of the 20th century. A rocketing career, international hits, hordes of fans and a tragic epilogue for this worldwide phenomenon. And what if Kurt Cobain’s band was none other than the last band in the history of rock? The ultimate generational phenomenon of genre, if not its last myth. David Bowie, star and genius, never stopped reinventing himself throughout his fascinating, shape-shifting musical career.

" (always with the "Let's" first) where I would normally say something like "A toast to. " or "Let's toast to. ". Or I would more likely just give a toast - "Here's to. " before drinking. And then expect people, if they're the type, to say "Cheers". Is their way a typical way that people use the word "cheers" that I've missed? And a social question: if this isn't typical, is this the sort of thing you tell your good friend so other people don't wonder about how they (I'll say it) cheers? Well, not quite. I think your friend is verbing a noun. So, "Cheers!" is an exclamation, and sometimes we might expand the sentence: "Cheers to you, friend!" It sounds like your friend is doing the thing where they make a noun into a verb, like how "Let's get lunch" became "Let's lunch." So your friend is saying "Let's say cheers to. " or "Let's toast to. " Maybe your friend is just ahead of the pack in this shift in usage? posted by bluedaisy at 5:02 PM on April 14, 2020. Yes, it’s a thing. Language evolves. And a social question: if this isn't typical, is this the sort of thing you tell your good friend so other people don't wonder about how they (I'll say it) cheers? Please don’t police your friend’s language. You will seem overbearing and rude. posted by His thoughts were red thoughts at 5:40 PM on April 14, 2020 [7 favorites] I say it to my three-year-old. She probably started it. But it works. I don't remember where I heard this, but somebody once told me that if the point of communication is to be understood, so if you understand what they're saying, it's not incorrect. I think everyone understands what a verb "cheers" means. posted by kevinbelt at 5:41 PM on April 14, 2020. I'm in my early 30s and this usage doesn't sound weird to me, so maybe I would say it too. Please don't correct people's language where it is perfectly clear what they are trying to say, or where there's nothing useful to be learned by anyone from the correction. I think that's more annoying than using Cheers as a verb. posted by kinddieserzeit at 7:32 PM on April 14, 2020. I’ve heard it a lot for a long time. I’m 40 and I live in Brooklyn and my friends aren’t toddlers or Bachelorettes. The answer to your social question is a resounding no. Super pompous to correct your friend’s speech, and much more of a social breach than using “basic” or incorrect speech. posted by kapers at 8:23 PM on April 14, 2020. Best answer: I’ve heard it a lot for a long time. I’m 40 and I live in Brooklyn and my friends aren’t toddlers or Bachelorettes. Same here. I've always used it knowing it wasn't proper grammar, but I use a lot of euphemisms, slang, curses, puns, metaphors, descriptive sounds, gestures etc in my spoken language. I fit this into that. posted by Toddles at 11:12 PM on April 14, 2020. Best answer: For whatever it's worth, here are a few earlier examples of people using the term "cheers-ing": From my casual googling, it seems that this usage really started to hit its stride sometime in the 2008-2010 timeframe. I haven't really been able to find substantial earlier references. posted by mhum at 11:44 AM on April 15, 2020 [1 favorite] Let's Cheers To This.
