It has often been posited that the music which is truest and sweetest comes from those whose souls are in turmoil. If such a hypothesis is to be believed, it may well explain why Jason Wade and his friends in Lifehouse seem to have connected with so many listeners on such a deep level over the course of their ten-plus years together as a band...

Release Date: December 11th, 2012 CA pop-rock/alternative rock band Lifehouse is one I haven't listened to in about five years. I haven't kept up with the band at all, and I'll be honest about that. The last record I listened to by them was 2007's Who We Are, and that's a great CD. "First Time" is a great song, but a friend of mine told me about their new album Almeria a few weeks ago. I had no clue it even was released, but I saw it on sale at Best Buy, so I decided to buy a copy...

Sound: After a disappointing sophomore slump Lifehouse is back with a new record and a renewed face. The album is called the way you would rather call your first record, not the third one. Self-titling it, Lifehouse are claming the rebirth of the band -...

Sound: The all together music blend and riffs all great. Lifehouse's combination calms you when your mad (track 6: Stanley Climbfall) or energizes you when you are slow in the day (1: Spin). The styles go from loud to love which is a very attracting trait in music for me. Additionally, Jason's voice is great with the composed music. // 10 Lyrics and Singing: Jason's lyrics get to you in a different way than the rest. Although, I didn't like very much the way he goes loud to soft quickly...

Sound: One word can be used to sum up the sound of this album: mellow. It's not as mellow as their previous, self-titled release, but Who We Are is still a voyage across a very calm sea. That said, songs like Disarray and The Joke] still bring with them a good amount of energy, the latter of which sounds like it should be played at some bar mitzfa or Greek wedding or something like that...

Sound: Although there has been chatter that Lifehouse's latest album Smoke & Mirrors would possibly delve into more of a classic rock sound, the new material is still fodder - although pleasant fodder - for pop radio stations. That's not to say that the Los Angeles quartet can't write a catchy tune because they very much can. The issue is that many of the tracks on Smoke & Mirrors do have a similar arrangement (and melody at times) to the past hit singles "You and Me" and "First Time...

I'm a huge geek so I love technology and the internet. But there are times when having access to so much international information isn't a good thing. One such time is when an album gets released in America before England and you end up seeing reviews and tweets from people who already have an album you desperately want! The Stephanie Smith EP was an example but Lifehouse has been an even bigger saga...

Lifehouse struck gold in 2000 when their hit single "Hanging By A Moment" went number one and theirdebut album No Name Face went on to achieve double platinum status. Since their release, and a marketingcampaign that found Lifehouse records on both Christian and mainstream store shelves, the alternative rockgroup has been scrutinized, as much as any band that exists in both realms, to no end...

The L.A. pop/rock band who hit it big with their first single "Hanging by a Moment" in 2001, and since has scored three more Top 40 hits including the wedding slow-dance song "You and Me," has a strange dichotomy at work. Fortunately for their cause, Lifehouse seem unable to write and compile a bad album. Unfortunately, however, they seem equally as unable to make a great album...
