Album Review: Kids in the Street

   So, uh, actually I post this because I don't know what else to post. But suddenly this came into my mind. It's been such a boring holiday, and last night I can't even sleep because of this boredom. Well, I might have been an insomniac, but, uh, forget it. Let's just back to our main subject.
   Kids in the Street has been my favorite records so far. It's the fourth album from an American rock band The All-American Rejects. Before they released this album on March 26, 2012, they released the promotional single which also come to be the first track of the records, Someday's Gone. The music video released on December 5, 2011. The first single Beekeeper's Daughter premiered through an American teen drama TV series 90120 on January 31, 2012 which featured an appearance from the band as themselves performing this song, before being digitally released on the same day. The music video followed its release on February 2. The title track Kids in the Street was released as the album's second single on March 13, followed by its music video release on April 16.

   The record starts with Someday's Gone, which gives you (gives me) some kind of tour back to the previous album When the World Comes Down. Continues with Beekeeper's Daughter that'll give you more thrills. Lead guitarist Nick Wheeler and lead vocalist Tyson Ritter said that the title came from a honey jar they had for breakfast 'The Beekeeper's Daughter'. Moving on to the third track Fast & Slow. This track shows up their 'matureness', according to the lyrics. After those three fast tracks, slow everything down through Heartbeat Slowing Down, which possible to break my your heart into pieces and, um, might tear you apart. Okay, that's too much. The fifth track Walk Over Me said to be the band's favorite track. Yeah, that's what I heard.. The title track Kids in the Street has become all AARMY's favorite track (AARMY is The All-American Rejects' fandom). This track gives you (again, gives me) the feel of authority. The band's frontman Tyson Ritter described the feel like when you feel smart and dumb at the same time. The music video is actually awesome, turning the whole band into their teenage form. The performance part showing the band performing the song in a small dim-light room with their instruments glowing in the dark. It's pretty cool. Oh, my favorite tracks beside Kids in the Street are the last two tracks. The track Affection starts with violin play (actually the violin plays along the whole song). And, last but not least track I For You is an acoustic track. This track was 'recorded in a cabin somewhere outside the Sequoia National Forest'. This song twice performed before the album's release--on DJ Rossstar show and on AOL Sessions.

   The tracks I mostly like are Kids in the Street, Affection, and I For You. I got the record for Rp75.000,00 in my town. It's $9.49 only at Amazon.com. Go grab it! Okay, now that's too much.
