Hold My Heart...

"The Bridge" by Letter Kills is by far one of the best CD's of the year. My interest in the band was first sparked at a previous concert that they played in support of Story of the Year. Their live show was great and I remembered them saying that their debut CD came out July 27th (along with Taking Back Sunday). I heard a few of their songs online and didn't really think much about them until I went to Best Buy to buy the Taking Back Sunday cd and I suddenly realized that Letter Kills CD was also released. So I picked it up for only 7 bucks and the rest is history. They flawlessly seam together classic rock and pop punk with a little screaming here and there and some wicked solos. This CD is very high energy as it starts out with "Lights Out" and this frantic energy continues for all but two tracks titled "Hold My Heart Pt. 2" and "Hold My Heart Pt. 1", both exceptional slower songs with still a great deal of energy; "...Pt. 1" being my favorite song. Letter Kills is once again on tour with Story of the Year and are coming to Norfolk on November 4th. If you are a fan of music you should buy this album or I will fight you.
See you at the show

    I am not familiar with the band Letter Kills but being a fan of Taking Back Sunday and Story of the Year along with your review, you have definitely sparked my interest enough to check them out. From the clips I have heard I think they are a band that I would enjoy a lot, plus who doesn't enjoy a good live band? Exactly, a good live band is awesome, especially when they put out good cd's as well. I am looking forward to hearing more of their music and maybe even having the opportunity to see them live one day. As Chip Whitley would say...see you at the show!
