Seeing Sounds Album Review

4 out of 5

#1 out 3 (rank vs album catalog)

This album dropped on June 10th, its now 4 months later and  I am still bumping the cd. I was asked to review this album so shouts out to Brandon or Branden like they call him now lol. I did some research on "Seeing Sounds" this album was actually inspired when the band watched a show about synaesthesia- the neurological that causes ppl to experience sounds as colors or objects as colors hence the creation of the idea and title.

"Seeing Sounds" is an album that mixes organic sounds with hip-hop beats and breaks splashed with an R&B. It sounds as if they were really making beats as opposed to using the traditional MPC. By that I mean live instruments in the studio later mixed with a MAC lol. (Pharrell had the nerve to say he is a PC, when he knows he using a Mac, matter-of-fact check any YouTube video and I guarantee he is sitting in front of an IMac, but I guess a check is a check haha, and one endorsed by Bill Gates cant possible bounce).

"Everybody Nose" takes a look at Hollywood's cocaine addiction, "Windows" is a story of looking into the a girls eyes that have caught your attention. I dont know what "Anti-Matter"

is talking about lol but the beat is disgusting! "Spaz" takes you on musical journey, it almost gives you the feel of riding a roller coster. "Yeah You" talks about those ppl who fall in love way to fast (stalker type). "Sooner or Later" talks about life at its lowest moments while "Happy" talks about life at its highest moments. "Love Bomb" talks about putting your differences aside when in a relationship and enjoying each other. All in all this album is very well put together and it is def worth the buy.
