Pros: Uplifting spiritual rock songs that have gained acceptance far beyond the Christian subculture. Cons: Sound is lackluster at times; some listeners will be frustrated by lyrical ambiguity.
Pros: "Breathing" is whimsically gorgeous, "Sick Cycle Carousel", empathetic lyrical theme Cons: Too many lyrics are same-ish, "Cling and Clatter", "Everything"
I've had Lifehouse's No Name Face for a couple of years now, and it's one of those CDs that tends to drift in and out of my frequently-played-CDs list. However, my opinion on it never seems to waver: It's simply a good album. When I say good, I ...
Pros:Hanging By A Moment, Sick Cycle Carousel, Breathing..plenty more! Cons:Only One, Cling and Clatter and Everything, not for everyone.
At the end of the year 1999, everybody was running around in panic as the hype of the world was finally coming to an end at the stroke of midnight. YIKES! But that didn't happen(thankful for that). But something DID happened- a band called ...
Pros: Energy, Most lyrics, Voice Cons: Musically unchallenging, Message
The day I saw the music video for Lifehouse's single "Hanging By a Moment," I'll admit I was surprised. That the lead singer was so young caught me by surprise, especially considering how deep his voice was. And on that single? It's a catchy little...
Pros: Great beat and lyrics Cons: It is sometimes hard to understand the lyrics
Lifehouse has had a huge rise to the top with the smash hit Hanging by a Moment. The first time I heard this song I had no idea who sang it, but I liked it a lot. After the song was over the DJ on the radio announced that the song was called...
Pros: Some awesome guitar riffs, compelling lyrics, but best of all, it's real. Cons: The album is far more downbeat than the single would lead one to believe.
Who would have thought that the opening band for a mega-success like Everclear would surpass them in imminent popularity? Well, apparently it has happened in the case of the band that is called Lifehouse.
Pros: Lifehouse has excellent vocals, instrumentals, and has great chemistry while playing together Cons: Songs are not as upbeat as others; most of them are slow
Earlier this year on a cold rainy morning, I was listening to the radio and heard a song that I had never heard before in my life. The guitar were great, as were the vocals, and it was a song that I had stuck in my head for the rest of the day....
Pros: Wonderful collection of deep and meaningful songs. Cons: None
Upon completing all requirements at garageband.com (which I reviewed under “Promoting Your Music”), I recently received my first music gift certificate. My husband and I both decided upon Lifehouse’s “No Name Face” CD as our first selection. This...
Pros:Hanging By A Moment makes the whole CD worthwhile Cons: none
I have always been the kind of person that reacts to various songs depending on what is going on in my life at any given time. Every so often a new song will start being played on the radio that grabs my soul and won't let go.
Pros: The album is promising, and a few of the songs are spectacular. Cons: Nothing too original, could have been produced by any other band in rock music.
For the past few years there has been an influx of straightforward rock bands that are propelled into stardom on the wings of a single hit. Bands such as Matchbox 20, Third Eye Blind, and the Foo Fighters are examples of this trend. While these bands...
Pros: An emotional release that wins over the sentimental heart in a moment with potential Cons: All soft, mellow soft with familar themes that may make some scream
“No Name Face” is definitely what I call a healing album, it’s got all the aspects to cure your down and out feelings as you listen to the sweet melodic ballads of love, affection, and emotional life reflecting lyrics that reach into the sensitive one’s...
Pros: Poetic lyrics, wonderful melodies, and a flowing, comforting voice. For a first CD, it's incredible. Cons: Sometimes Jason is a little hard to understand. Not his lyrics, but his voice.
Most of the songs here are brilliant and wonderful. Here's a song-by-song analysis: Hanging by a Moment: Most of us have heard this as it was hugely popular for quite a while. It's a love song, and he's apparently taking a dive by going for the girl, ...
Pros: It's Rock N' Roll Cons: It's GENERIC, FACELESS Rock N' Roll
Ultimately, Lifehouse is a dime-a-dozen type of band that got a recording contract, but doesn't have that much to show for it on the debut. The music and lyrics is almost always 'slick,' meaning that if you removed this band and replaced it with another...
Pros: Catchy tunes, soulful lyrics,deeply thoughtful Cons: Sometimes hard to understand
What a great line! This band from Los Angeles's first single Hanging By a Moment came out at a great time of sadness in my life, and I was uplifted by the obvious joy in this song. When I first looked on this site for a category to put my review in,...
Pros: great songs such as Everything, Breathing, Simon and Hanging by a Moment. Cons: Some may not like everything here.
When I bought "No Name Face," by Lifehouse, "Hanging By A Moment was just hitting radio. If you like your alternative pop rock in the vein of Creed, Fuel, 3 Doors Down, Sr-71, Stroke 9, Vertical Horizon, Live and Incubus, look no further. With Soaring...
