MichaelCAug 14, 2007They should have just released it as a Kids Bop record. Because that's all this is; a child's idea of powerful music. It's kids music, and nothing more. Anyone above the age of 12 should grow up and find something better. This is garbage.

EricC.Aug 14, 2007Exactly what fans of this genre have come to expect; the most uncreative alternative nonsense that borrows from other bands of the genre, so that they all sounded exactly alike. Really, you could be buying a handful of other cds for the price of one. They just want to be on a cell phone comercial or a teen movie. They'll get their money, but zero respect from anyone who cares about music.

alexfJul 25, 2007This album was a HUGE let down. The worst Yellowcard album ever. Paper Walls sounds just like One For The Kids. I was waiting for this album to come out all sumer. And now it has and it is a big let down. I loved Lights and Sounds and thought this album was going to be even better but it's not.

It's prototypical Warped tour rock - but, to be fair, at the top level of that particular realm, with thoughtful lyrics and tightly crafted guitar arrangements.
-
Unsurprisingly, the lyrics are direct and honest, while they've broadened their sonic palette to allow a tad more dissonance in with their urgent and propulsive pop-punk.
-
O pure musical terms they're more gripping than many of their peers, displaying a restless sense of musicality that often makes Paper Walls interesting even if means they can stray toward areas that are just a shade too indulgent for their own good.
