Frantic, Beautiful - A Must Own.......2007-07-09

I love this album. By the end of the introductory piece, you're not sure what to expect; a pretty, stagnant collection of songs from the guys who made Feel Good Lost? Then the second song, KC Accidental, begins.

An electric guitar is strummed quietly, deliberately, and for about ten seconds your suspicions seem to have been confirmed. Then the drums crash. The song's tempo and volume are immediately doubled; layers of guitar soar while the rhythm section plows ahead. After four measures of beautiful, breakneck instrumentation, the rest of the band crash like a wave, dissolving as the lone guitar continues strumming, louder but still deliberate. After four measures of this, the band returns at full speed. The push-and-pull between the single guitar and the rest of the band continues until finally it all breaks to make way for harmonizing strings and breathy, understated vocals.

You're not sure what you're hearing anymore, but one thing is clear - there is nothing stagnant about this music. It's as though Broken Social Scene takes for granted that the two aforementioned extremes of style should be considered a range within which a band may work. One song may explore its boundaries with feedback effects and a catchy, dominant bassline; the next may aspire to test the definition of cacophony with screeching guitars and vocals that are more shouted than sung. Yet another song croons the chorus "I'm still your fag" over pretty acoustic picking and brushed drums.

In short, this is one of the richest, frantically beautiful albums I own, and I recommend it to anyone. I promise that there will be something on this album for you to enjoy - for me, it's the whole thing.

So much yet so little.......2007-04-23

I grew up with The Police so take my opinion with a grain of salt but what I've heard of this album sums up what seems so wrong with this incarnation of indie rock. Too many possibilities for bands - all the effects and sub-syles replace what songwriting might be in there - they hit the Dinosaur-Jr style uptempos, grandiose strings / pianos build-ups, and psuedo-trip-hop cool-outs. On "Looks just like the Sun" a loopy, funky snare beat, acoustic guitar for mellowness and self-assured but weak vocals does not make a good song for me. The vocals just never make it beyond a vapid, quaalude style. The band reminds us their sweet studio also came with a banjo, a Rhodes piano, a real piano, and amps to mimic any guitar sound out there. I actually liked "Almost Crimes" and from another album "Hotel" and "7/4". But all in all this is well-played music that seems empty. I like overdubs and soundeffects just not the motives behind their use, and, well, overuse.

Just Plain Broken.......2007-02-06

1.) Arrangements relies too much on effects, not musically challenging or that interesting.
2.) Background ambient instrumentals are to imposing, they over power the main structure.
3.) Lyrically unsound and ridiculous.

You Forgot It In People.......2007-01-20

Broken Social Scene's trivial debut pastiche, "Feel Good Lost," gave no indication of the heights they would scale on "You Forgot It In People." Consisting of an expanded 12-member lineup culled from Montreal's experimental music sector, Broken Social Scene broke out of the gates with an exquisite pop gem whose plethora of smaller gems could have (and should have) topped the Billboard pop charts. It's full of contradictions--breezy yet dense, poppy yet challenging, intimate yet absolutely huge--but BSS make it all look easy, especially considering the multitudinous personnel involved. In fact, it flows out of the speakers so smoothly that it's difficult to believe that some of the band members had never written a four-minute song in their whole lives. We could have used something this vivacious, intelligent and easygoing five years prior, when grunge music was reaching its lowest introverted depths, but if Broken Social Scene had to flounder awhile in order to arrive here, so be it. And darn if "Cause=Time" isn't the best pop song I've heard since Junior High.

One of the best albums of all time (believe it!).......2006-09-17

These guys make creating incredible rock music appear easy. There's something incredibly natural about this album, and yet it feels wholly original. The songs are emotionally powerful and very well written, identifiying this as a standard indie rock album among the ranks of The Arcade Fire or Wolf Parade, but it also has a sense of groove and musicality to it that identifies it with almost a jazz/funk/jam-band aesthetic. I in no way mean to mislead people by making a connection between this CD and these other genres, because the sound of the album really has little to do with jazz, funk, or jam-bands, but it does demonstrate the power of this album and the skill of the musicians that they are able to strike a balance between a sense music-for-music's sake (as in tight grooves and great musicianship), which is primarly a concept associate with jazz, and concise, emotionally-loaded, structured songs that give this CD the strength of the indie rock albums we all know and love. This CD is enthralling, soft and gentle as a whisper, emotoinal, powerful, dreamy, and groovy. Its also remarkably consistant. What a f@#$ing great album!

"Park that car, drop that phone, sleep on the floor, dream about me.".......2005-08-30

This is such a beautiful album.

I don't know how to explain it but the music has such emotional swells that it has your heart aching in desperateness even though you don't know what you're desperate for.

Any music that can make you feel so much emotion is doing its job, and Broken Social Scene does their job incredibly.
