The Cab vs. Hey Monday

| Comments

Thanks to the brainwashing induced by repeated listenings of the Fall Out Boy mixtape, I bought the new albums from "The Cab" and "Hey Monday" over the weekend, at the Amazon MP3 store. I would have preferred to buy either on CD or on iTunes, but I couldn't find the former, and the latter wasn't iTunes Plus (and I pretty-much refuse to buy DRM'd songs on iTunes, unless it's a major impulse buy).

So far, "Whisper War" by "The Cab" is the big winner - it's a fairly decent pop record, that I'm sure I won't remember in about two months. "Hey Monday's" debut, however, just reminds me of how much I love "Paramore". My advice: skip "Hey Monday", and pick up both of Paramore's albums.
