The Best Album of 2007?

Silverchair - Young Modern 9.4

Does the band Silverchair sound familiar? They were that mediocre 90's grunge band from Australia that had a few hits...end of story? No, no, no. I woke up, put on my pants, and downloaded this masterpiece of an album. The first track, "Young Modern Station" makes a case for a new Silverchair album...they can adapt to this new hip world of Wolves and Mouse bands. They play it safe with a catchy very tight pants and pink hoodie indie jam. Then the highlight of the album, "If You Keep Losing Sleep" sideswipes expectation and sends this album into a 9.0 and up rating. The song starts with a military drum roll, followed by corky hums, and then hits with unthinkable off and on organ hits...everything a music fan could want. One of my favorite things in music is when you can tell a singer is passionate, cocky, and just sells the lyrics...all these things highlighted by the band. Not sure when the release date will be but pick this one up.
