    This is by far the best album I've ever heard! Good Charlotte is an incredible band, who released a fantastic album full of amazing songs!
    The songs gotten a less "younger" sound.. and that made the album a whole lot better!

    This album has some good and bad impressions I love GC one of my main bands have been a fan for 4 years now and still am just them last night LIVE , it was amazing they sound so good so much like the CD, single worthy songs are very good quality wise and has so much fun like Like it s her b-day, Last Night, Right Where I belong, Silver Screen romance is really good too, Some bummers likeThis album has some good and bad impressions I love GC one of my main bands have been a fan for 4 years now and still am just them last night LIVE , it was amazing they sound so good so much like the CD, single worthy songs are very good quality wise and has so much fun like Like it s her b-day, Last Night, Right Where I belong, Silver Screen romance is really good too, Some bummers like repetitive weird lyrics, like Standing Ovation and Let The music play and Counting the days, They are fun and very melodic songs although some songs dont fit lyrically which I hope they do to their next album. They should Combine nexttime MELODY + QUALITY LYRICS + FUN = a Better album.... I rate this album a 7/10 for the fun and the overall attitude of the band which i find great they seem to enjoy themselves alot! FOREVER GC Expand

    For me, this 5th studio album stays below the expectation. With the time it gets boring this kind of teeny Rockmusic. sorry guys, its time to grow up.

    To make listeners' hearts melt, there's a lullaby for Joel's daughter, Harlow, a bit of a cynical move when most of the album is about sleeping with other radio stars, getting wasted like it's your birthday and getting wasted, sleeping with someone, blacking out and thinking it was the best night of your life.

    While they may have grown up, Good Charlotte have clearly not lost sight of who they are. Perhaps most importantly, though, they still know where they're going. [30 Oct 2010, p.50]

    Maturity doesn't necessarily suit the band--there's a natural, flat whine to Joel Madden's voice that dooms him to eternal adolescence--but every step Good Charlotte makes toward a comfortable middle age on Cardiology is a step that succeeds, producing music that resonates louder and longer than the flashy twaddle of Good Morning Revival.
