AlexMay 3, 2006although much removed from 'old school' TBS, "Louder Now" is still a fantastic disc in it's own right, chocked full of cracking songs (Liar, MakeDamnSure, Spin, Twenty Twenty Surgery, I'll Let You Live...). kudos boys.

ShawnMApr 25, 2006Better than their previous work. Excellent engineering leads to a sound that really is as the title of the album describes. Glad to see them take some risks by moving away a little from that typical 'emo sound.' Still plenty here to appease their old fans, but hopefully they will reach some new people as well.

GabeSApr 26, 2006Good, They've really grown musically, Dont listen to everyone who says they sold out, They cant sound the same forever if they did it would be incredibly boring......

JasonWApr 26, 2006It's better than their last album but doesn't get close to touching tell all your friends. They still do this type of music better than most other bands in their genre.

RoisinOApr 28, 2006It took me awhile to like this album but after listening to it about ten times im starting to see the good in it. The album is slightly repeative and has the potential to be so much better however it has some quality songs like Make Dame Sure. All of TBS previous album where alot better and likable, this is just ok

Domino'sNewXLPMay 6, 2006OK while people are saying this isnt an emo album, its still what they are classified as. Taking Back Sunday is still one of those bands where if you dont listen to emo music, you arent going to like them. I am one of those people. To me all they and every other emo band just like them are just another group of whiny people who hate life.

MattkMay 9, 2006ehhh. Not great, and certainly not too original. It lacks the power and feels more contained than the previous albums. They tend to soung like the Juliana Theory (first track) and even Dashboard (the bridge in track 5). Definitely a huge step down from their first cd, and better, but only by a little, than their second. Get someone to burn it for you, not really worth buying.

TomCJun 2, 2006Even though my musical tastes have moved on from this type of music, I've always kept a special place for Taking Back Sunday. Unfortunately, this album doesn't really do a whole lot that the band hasn't done before. Some of the songs are entertaining and keep me interested, but for the most part I was really hoping they'd have changed a bit more for this release.

MikeJun 7, 2006I enjoyed the album. I really thought the beginning and ending songs were appropriate for the album, because it opens up with passion, and it ends with kind of a sad-angry theme, while the middle of the album is a blast of energy. Overall, it is just good ol' TBS.

LaceyJJul 11, 2006I freakin love love taking back sunday. Their Album "Louder Now" Is the Best yet.. Although i do like "Tell All Your Friends" and "Where You Want To Be" , "Louder Now " Takes the cake. Their lyrics and music are fantastic. I dont see how they could get a 7.7, no way. Their Album is realllly good. I love all of the songs.

DaveHApr 26, 2006It's hard to deny the catchiness Taking Back Sunday brings to the table, and that alone is what makes them a good band. One of my guilty pleasures for sure, Louder Now steps it up a notch and provides even catchier tunes than I ever imagined possible. A great listen.

Arm-FarmApr 26, 2006this is an AMAZING album, from the slow songs like devine intervention to the heart pouding sounds like what's it feel like to be a ghost? and spin. this album is one of there best. way better then where you want to be. and just below Tell all your friends.

DustinPApr 26, 2006Great album they kept their style but branched out and made an aweosme rock album. HE whines but you don't hate it.

GordonApr 26, 2006Oh, good. Another emo album.
-
-
JasonAApr 26, 2006Overproduced and bland. MakeDamnSure is by far the best track. None of the other songs are particularly great either. Nothing on here is bad per say but nothing lives up to their past glories. Bring back John Nolan I say!

Feb 20, 2012Louder Now, just really doesn't work. After finally breaking into the mainstream, Taking Back Sunday begin to embody parts of Indie Rock into a sound which is not their own. Over-production is clearly the main culprit here- 'Spin' remains the only reasonable track on offer.
-
May 22, 2012Attitude and swagger combined with ground shaking guitar riffs and distortion make this one of the greatest album's i've come across. Everything is profound and the double vocals work amazingly!!! yoh!

Even if Louder Now brings the mosh-pit fun ready to be embraced by new and old fans alike, an attempt to push themselves further would be more than welcomed.

Alternative PressTaking Back Sunday should be commended, not for just choosing not to rehash their older work, but for truly trying to branch out artistically--and succeeding most of the time. [May 2006, p.155]
-
BlenderWithout a target for their ire, TBS opt for sheer emo relentlessness. [May 2006, p.111]
