The Spill Canvas isn't doing anything new...it's not a sound you haven't heard before...but that doesn't stop it from being an entertaining CD. A lot of the album is reminiscent of Dashboard confessional...but definitely less whiney and more electric. Think Dashboard Confessional meets Fall Out Boy. In addition, kead singer Nick Thomas has a pretty amazing voice that can be extremely seductive at times, like in "Battles" (which is my favorite) and "Lullaby".
The album in its entirety definitely has the feel of the music industry influence, but the lyrics are strong and meaningful and as catchy as everything is, it doesn't really sound contrived. The vocals are full of passion that you can't help but forgive the mainstream-ness of it all. Their single "All Over You" is splashed across music choice channels but I don't think it's quite hit the traditional stations yet...it's just a matter of time though. Top 40 stations eat up this kind of radio-friendly emo and ya know what? I wouldn't blame them on this one.
