Yellowcard - Lights and Sounds (2005)

*1/2 (of four)


This song's intro sounds just like the riff from Nirvana's "Breathe." Then the frontman - who resembles gay Broadway star Alan Cumming - unleashes his innocuously nasally vocal cards on us, and the unoriginality somehow gets more unoriginal. The band appears to be trapped in a large cattle car full of flashing, patterned flourescent lightbulbs with mini-searchlights flying around the room. Generic, forgettable, these "Lights and Sounds" not worth watching, writing about or reading about. Yellowcard wasted my time, and now I'm wasting your time.
