Cons: N/A
Yellow card is so cool i mean like they have a violin player. modern rock just doesn't have that kind of indvidualalty. i heard thier music video on mtv and i liked it. I guess watching mtv and sitting on my ass all spring break paid off. I would reccomend this record to everyone that likes bands like Good Charolette, and Blink 182. This record is so cool its great i mean i could listen to it for hours in my car and not get tired of it.

Pro Reviews: Ocean Avenue
| EXPERT RATING: From AMG Reviews Yellowcard makes its majorlabel debut with Ocean Avenue. This SoCal punkpop fivesome slightly softens the edges found on its previous two albums in what is an attempt to win over the TRL crowd. Regardless of the reasons why, Yellowcard works with that familiar formula of spastic, crunchy guitar licks, emoinspired lyrics, and vocals tailored for that tinny, whiny effect. Some say it's been done before, and by 2003 it surely had, but Yellowcard seems to not give a care about it because Ocean Avenue delivers despite of its catchy recipe. The 13song set switches in mood and tempo for a layered, dynamic sound, and vocalist Ryan Key could very well chasten Dashboard Confessional's Christopher Carraba about keeping things short and simple. Songs like "Way Away" and "Empty Apartment" thrive on the basics of rock roll foliated guitars weaved in between highspeed percussion. But that's not all. Yellowcard has a secret component when it comes to crafting its own punkinspired presentation. Violinist Sean Mackin is impressively skilled, and his talent allows Yellowcard to have a bit of an advantage in making something sound original and fresh. "Believe" and the acoustic guitars of "One Year, Six Months" are proof of that. Ocean Avenue isn't exactly outstanding in the sense that this band has done something outrageously different, but it is a worthy collection of songs with a real heart; that alone shows that Yellowcard is on to something solid. - MacKenzie Wilson, All Music Guide |

With wonderful lyrics, and mostly upbeat songs. This cd brings with it everything that makes rock great. Melodic lyrics, and instrumentals (including many stringed instruments) make this cd a must buy.
Overall, this cd deserves 5 out of 5 stars, and even if you only buy a couple CDs a year, this should be at the top of your list.
