While a few songs put the "meh" back in melodramatic ('Walking Away,' 'This Is the End'), This Is Forever is full of catchy songs that improve on the band's first album.
-
Of course, nothing on This is Forever is really new territory; the 80’s influenced synthesizers, the electronic drums, the monotone vocalist, it’s all been heard before. It’s all been done so much better.
-
Begging can be sexy, too, but for SWR it’s just another joyless act by a hateful species.
-
On a disc that ultimately exhausts itself with boredom and clichés, it's just not worth it.
-
This is Forever simply cannot get past its own self-imposed lack of evolution.

ErikHNov 5, 2007Ben H., never favorably compare shit like She Wants Revenge to legends like Joy Division again... ever. There's no comparison in quality at all.
