Análisis (en inglés) - :
When ironies are as delicious as {\punk-pop} quartet {$Good Charlotte} turning into the very thing they parodied on their career-making hit, {&"Lifestyles of the Rich and the Famous,"} it's hard to resist the temptation to repeat the story, no matter how often it's been said. After all, it is true. {$Good Charlotte} succumbed to every temptation fame has to offer and turned into L.A. scenester frat-rats, which, in turn, turned them into gossip-blog fodder as lead singer {$Joel Madden} dated teen queens and super-skinny celebs whose main claim to fame was being famous. It's a textbook {\rock & roll} cliché, and now that the apex of their popularity is beginning to recede into the past, they've fallen back on another textbook {\rock & roll} cliché for their fourth album, 2007's {^Good Morning Revival}: desperate trend-chasing. True, the group was beginning to stretch out on their first post-fame album, 2004's {^The Chronicles of Life and Death}, but where that found the group getting a little more ambitious, {^Good Morning Revival} -- released a full five years after their breakthrough, {^The Young and the Hopeless} -- demonstrates that they now have real concerns about appearing fashionable, so they've adopted the two main {\rock} trends that surfaced since 2002: {\dance}-{\punk} and '80s fetishism. They've morphed from {$blink-182} into {$the Killers}, a stylistic makeover that makes {$Madden}'s swipes at the "plastic people" of Hollywood on the opening {&"Misery"} ring a little hollow since his sudden pursuit of {\glam} style seems like the epitome of L.A. emptiness. To be sure, the icy synth textures and guitar atmospherics borrowed from {$the Edge} are the foundation of this album, but {$Good Charlotte} aren't content to just restrict themselves to tricks they learned from {$the Killers}; they sample from a wide spectrum of sounds and bands from the last five years. There's the pounding {\electro}-{\disco} of {$Rapture}-lite {&"Dance Floor Anthem,"} which feels like it should be ironic, but isn't. There's the {$Blur}/{$Gorillaz}-aping {&"Keep Your Hands Off My Girl"} -- its chanting verse borrowed from {&"We Got a Line on You,"} the hook from {&"Song 2,"} its beat from {$the Gorillaz} -- and there's the {$Coldplay}-esque shimmer of {&"Where Would We Be Now,"} complete with the finishing touch of piano arpeggio. This kind of calculating changeup would have worked better if the band had the hooks or the good sense to embrace their crass pandering so it's good trashy fun; if they signaled that they knew how ridiculous this shift in direction was, it'd be easier to enjoy. [A CD/DVD version was also released.] ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide
