Album description

This Ain't Hollywood is an imaginary soundtrack for a movie. The sound is often compared to bands like Coldplay, Editors and Radiohead. Sad songs for optimists.

The songs are filled with constant dull roar of sound with little depth. Break away from the wall of sound a bit. Throw in some surprises. Flip the shit and then flip it back. Do something to hook me in! After listening, I got a sense that nothing was gained nothing was lost.

It sounds like the band is trying to do an imitation of coldplay doing an imitation of U2. The musical soul feels like its been watered down to the point to where there is no edge left (Get it? It's a pun)

Excuse my passive aggressiveness: Your playing is solid, the production shines, but I've heard your songs in an non-condensed soup form.

You guys have a great sound, and your album cover isn't bad either. I hope you guys keep making good music.

I managed to get to the start of track 5 before I couldn't take anymore. I then went straight to track 7 because a reviewer said they liked it, but unfortunately it was more of the same, or worse because of the "wall of sound" guitar effect. Somehow I endured until the end, but no part of it appealed at all, and track 10 ended the misery on a really whiny note. Ouch.

I'm sure that this style of music has its fans, but I'm afraid I'm not one. This album gets classified firmly under "more non-memorable pop" for me, and I could have been more critical.

On top of that, the chord progressions are just boring or indistinct, and the dynamic range is really narrow, both of which contribute to very little of musical interest.

I'm afraid I can't give this album a good score.

Everyone seems to be saying that they don't like it and knocking it. But honestly, I loved it. I thought it was extremely good especially this aint Hollywood. I think that all the critics need to realize that if they don't like pop then they aren't going to like this, which is fine. But don't say its a terrible album just because you don't like the genre.

I am in love with the whole album. A bit of a change compared to the so- called great bands like Coldplay, phenomenally better and definetely more original. YAY!

Great production & sound quality. Pop-enough but not pop too much. I also like the design of the cover which fits very well with the "movie soundtrack" theme.

Nice music to listen to on grey autumn days. Balance is nice so it doesn't delve too much into sadness or depression, and neither in joy.

The description of your album is perfect.

Music is like I on land of new stuff that is come for this is big.
Song are off the carts it is really good.
Art work is that good and clean.
Over all it is Ice Cold album!
