Melt

r repeal
Often, when you buy an album based on the
popularity of the first single, you find that the
rest of the album is nothing like that first cut.
However, this is not the case with Rascal Flatts
sophomore album Melt.
The first single off the album, “These Days,”
has shot up the country music charts and cur
rently sits at number six on the Billboard coun
try singles chart. The 10 other cuts on the new
album have the potential to follow in this sin
gle’s success.
The members of Rascal Flatts have young,
pop. boy band good looks and smooth har
monies that border on being too good. The
band capitalizes on these assets and combines
them with a pleasing, albeit almost too com
mercial, sound and amazing lyrics to make an
outstanding album.
Noteworthy cuts off the album are the clever
“Too Good Is True" and powerful “Shine On.”
The song “Mayberry” will make anyone stop and
think as they speak of the world spinning fast and
how “Sunday was a day of rest / now its one
more day for progress.”
The only drawback to this album is that it falls
short of being a full hour in length. It leaves you
wanting more of the group’s vocal talents and
emotional songs.

Heathen Chemistry

Although Oasis is probably one of the most
forgotten bands from the nineties-surge of anti
grunge acts, the fact remains that it is home to
two of the most intriguing personalities known to
rock — the Gallagher brothers. The band seems to
have temporarily left its never-ending differences
behind to create its fifth studio album Heathen
Chemistry.
With a new drummer and guitarist in the line
up. Oasis has created its most polished of albums
to date. Front man Liam Gallagher uses sporadic
vocals on the collection of tunes with Beatle-
esque melodies and mesmerizing guitar hooks.
The track “The Hindu Times” has a confusing
title, but is a gem on the disc, with the force of
an arena anthem that could put any Brit pop
detractor to shame.
The song “Stop Crying Your Heart Out” is an
almost ridiculously emotional tune on the disc,
but its sincerity is a welcome release from the
“Wonderwalf’-type songs of the past. The fact
that older brother Noel vocalizes for the first time
in the band's nine-year history makes this album
stand out from other Oasis creations.
“She is Love" and “Little By Little” are two
remarkable tracks that Noel lends his voice to
and are proof that a great injustice was done to
the world by keeping his voice under wraps all
this time.
“Born On A Different Cloud” and “Hung In
A Bad Place” are other tracks on the album that
