Alesana Album: “Where Myth Fades To Legend”
Description :
This is an Enhanced CD, which contains both regular audio tracks and multimedia computer files.
<p>Alesana: Shawn Milke (vocals, guitar, piano); Dennis Lee (vocals); Adam Ferguson (guitar, background vocals); Patrick Thompson (guitar); Shane Crump (bass instrument, background vocals); Jeremy Bryan (drums).
<p>Post-hardcore outfit Alesana push their blend of screamo, pop-punk, metal, and emo further forward on their second full-length, WHERE MYTH FADES TO LEGEND. Much like their debut, WHERE MYTH is accessible, melodic, and crushingly intense. Twin classic metal guitars, jackhammer rhythms, and alternately sung and screamed vocals are the lynchpins of this bracing excursion into whiplash genre blending. Alesana may be too hard for emo fans, and too melodic for hardcore fans, but those with a taste for both will find WHERE MYTH FADES TO LEGEND fits the bill.

- Better than the first
Alesana's first album is great but this one is much better. The songs are much more catchy and the vocals are awesome! Don't listen to the bad reviews, if you liked alesana last album you'll love this one. Not much else I can say so take a listen to it for yourself! Cag777 (Virginia) - October 08, 2012
- Love it!
I bought this album as a gamble, I had no clue what the band sounded like before buying it, and boy was I in for a treat! I love this album! The angelic singing is amazing and Shawn's sister adds so much to the songs I love her voice! This is my favorite album they have made. yenrab (Raleigh, NC USA) - July 07, 2008
- Freshman release is better
I'm from Raleigh (where these guys hail) and picked up on this band a few years back. I really like their first album. At the time I was into Chiodos' first album and Alesana's freshman release was in a similar vein, so I really enjoyed the album. But this one (shaking head). I've listened through the album twice now and maybe I should give it another spin but it just is not grabbing me. The first one was innovative to a degree and grabbed me but this is just mundane and does nothing for me. Except, I do like the first 20 seconds of the first song. I will say this - the only good it's gonna do me is it just helps fill up my 360's play-list for when I'm randomly playing music while gaming. There's nothing special here and nothing much memorable...it almost reminds me of the direction He Is Legend took, or Dead Poetic, but not to that degree...cause they really went to crap. 0 of 1 people found the following review helpful:
- Good try but still..
In general,its a good album but in some songs i dont now it seems like the group lacks confidence.there are 2-3 songs which are awesome but 5-6 songs are not that good.A mediocre album.i expect more of them in the future. 0 of 4 people found the following review helpful:
- Uniquely Terrible
This is a perfect demonstration of the pitfalls of genre, exhibiting nearly every grating, earbleeding tendency possible. There's plenty of supurb records in this genre, but this isn't one of them. |
