Pedal Street by Breeze
Reviewer Anna Martino,age 13
Breeze has released Pedal Street after a two-year wait,in spite of pressure from fans and their record company.Fans had been told to expect something special and this is a masterpiece.This band’s music is exceptional.The song lyrics (歌词) express emotions that are felt by everybody,focusing on topics other artists seem to prefer not to sing about.Breeze uses an interesting mix of styles including classical strings (弦乐器) and modern guitar riffs (重复段).
Thrill by Skydiggers
Reviewer Alexis Walker,age 14
Skydiggers,a Canadian rock group,have released the album (专辑) Thrill,which was recorded over two years.Although some tunes (曲调) are difficult to tell apart from each other in the sense that Suzi Tarrant’s voice doesn’t vary from song to song,the album will soon be permanently fixed on your playlist.
Silver Honeybees by Lena and the Lantanas
Reviewer Sam Roberts,age 16
Lena has been allowed to sing all types of songs here in order to really show what she can do.And in case you think that her new far-ranging style may not be attractive to a youthful teenage fan base,remember that her teen audience is sure to grow along with her as she makes more music.While some bands include good beats but have meaningless lyrics that make you feel slightly sick,or sing songs with meaningful words yet make a terrible sound,the Lantanas are different and a rare find.
Hungry Rock by April Sapa
Reviewer Julie Zhang,age 14
The album covers everything a teenager can feel:love,hate,acceptance and even boredom.It is an excellent combination of easy listening,even though there are several songs that could easily have been left out,resulting in a better album overall.
