Blindside - The Great Depression

[Gott ist kühl]

When I first heard that Blindside was releasing a new album on August 2nd, 2005, I was highly fearful that Blindside had stopped putting effort into their albums because they were going to release one so soon after About A Burning Fire. Honestly, I was not anticipating The Great Depression at all. I liked About A Burning Fire, but was not overly impressed with it, though, I do believe their sound had matured very much. I listened to AABF off and on after I bought it, and I got bored with it after a little while. So I reverted back to listening to their self-titled album Blindside, and their second release A Thought Crushed My Mind.

Well, dispite the galling thought of this new album, I motivated myself to go out and buy it. To my surprise, FYE, Bestbuy, nor Circuit City had the album in stock. There was a place for it at Bestbuy, but it had sold out. A Blindside section was nowhere to be found in Circuit City, and FYE only had Silence. I found Blindside's new album at the corporate whore, Wal-Mart, for $9.72. All I am going to say is this: The new album is f'ing amazing. It far surpasses any hopes, expectations, anticipations, and destroyed any doubts or fears I had about it. Blindside has come a long way, and I think this may be my favourite of all their albums now.

I recommend everyone to go and buy Blindside's new album, The Great Depression.

Sounds great. I'll check it out. I heard some of their new songs on purevolume. They sound great!

[Opie]

Wow...I absolutely love this disc!

[ChurchPunk 2]

Yes, this CD is awesome. I love Heart Attack and We're All Gonna Die. Get it.

[supahfly23]

i picked it up today at Best Buy. i'm a little ticked though, i saw it there friday but i didn't have enough money to get it. since then it went from $9.99 to $14.99, which doesn't sound like much, but with gas so expensive....

i'll review the cd when i sit down and listen straight through, but my favorties so far are Yamkela and Fell in Love with the Game

[DKelly]

This CD is on my top five list of CDs I want to get soon.

The Great Depression rocks! Sounds more like
some of their older stuff.
My favorite songs are:
"Ask Me Now"
"Yamkela"
"Put Back The Stars"
"Fell In Love With The Game".
I saw the music video for "Fell In Love With The Game"
It's awesome.

Just got this cd(I got it at Wal-Mart too :rolleyes: ).Pretty cool.

Good cd But it didnt seems like they matured all that much from About a Burning Fire.It still had much the same guitar work which I geuss was alright.The vocals did go back to a bit of their older style and I liked that.
