[REVIEW] All-American Rejects - Move Along

I am going to piss off so many Americans I can feel it

This is a copy paste from my school newsletter one

• Dirty Little Secret - 11/10 Starting off with a bang!!! Here’s a fun fact. This song is a pop-punk staple, holds an 8x Platinum certification worldwide and peaked at 18 on the UK Singles Chart.. Even my sister knows this one!
• Stab My Back - 11/10 An acoustic rock song. This demonstrates some of the album’s unorthodox instrumentation, with usage of theremin (a contactless synth).
• Move Along - 10/10 A catchy, anthemic feel-good track. It peaked at 42 on the UK Singles Chart.
• It Ends Tonight - 8/10 More of the same, but they threw in a piano this time! It peaked at number 66 on the UK Singles Chart.
• Change Your Mind - 7/10 This sounds a bit like Weezer but if they were formed in the American South or something.
• Night Drive - 10/10 This track features more eclectic instruments, with the usage of a banjo, electric sitar, and talk box guitar effects. This is also the album’s hardest rocker by far!
• 11:11 P.M. - 7/10 I don’t really know what to say, but this one felt especially American.
• Dance Inside - 6/10 The first written song on this album, but I do think that he wants to dance.
• Top of the World - 10/10 This track featured in the videogame Burnout Revenge and makes use of a classical (or Spanish) guitar. As for it’s place on the album? Standout!!!
• Straitjacket Feeling - 6/10 The umpteenth ballad on this album. It’s not too shabby, from a technical standpoint.
• I’m Waiting - 6/10 Essentially the same as the prior track.
• Can’t Take It - 11/10 There was no need to have an entire orchestra, but they did and this song is genuinely great!
• Night Drive (Acoustic) - 5/10 I suppose it has it’s moments, but I don’t understand why this title received an acoustic version of all the songs on the album. The only good parts are the piano break in the bridge and the flourish at the end.
• Eyelash Wishes - 7/10 After 5 tracks of no pop-punk, we end with pop-punk. Fittingly poetic. Overall, the album features some great tracks, mixed in with American radio rock mediocrity
