New Music: The good, the bad, and let's not go there

Okay, as we did old movies the last time, today we are going to check out some new ones. Ones that don't have a picture. Or dialogue.

The good:

When The World Comes Down - The All-American Rejects
Although they may have gone a bit out of their metaphorical stride, this album is ALMOST as wonderful as Move Along, and I would say that it just needs a bit less deviant upbeatness.
(Yes, I did just invent that word. I'm adding it to my dictionary now.)

Day And Age - The Killers
While this is, again, not a stride forward for The Killers, it is still a showcase of insane musical skills. Bonus: It includes Human!

The bad:

Chinese Democracy - Guns N' Roses
Let's see if we can't point out the bad things here. First, THIS IS NOT GUNS N' ROSES! THIS IS A FRICKING AXL ROSE SHOWOFF SHOWCASE!!! Okay, now that I'm finished with that, let's talk about the actual album. It sucks. Don't waste your money on this pathetic piece of @$#&.

808s & Heartbreak - Kayne West
Kayne West is back for another great bounty of rap. Maybe. Not really. Actually, he's just imitating T-pain. Except it's worse. This is the music you would want to take to the Grand Canyon. To throw it over a guardrail. Because this music sucks. Just...no.
