Writing a review 101, welcome to the first day of class where we learn how to write a review that you donâ┚¬Ã¢”ž¢t necessarily want to write. The first thing you need is a mediocre (at best) record. The second thing youâ┚¬Ã¢”ž¢ll need is a lot of time on your hands to craft your writing into something objective for the masses.
A popular thing to do is to compare the record that is being reviewed (in our case thatâ┚¬Ã¢”ž¢s the Love Arcade self titled album) to something. Iâ┚¬Ã¢”ž¢ll give you an example, the Love Arcade is the closest thing there is to actually being able to fit high school drama on a compact disc. The next thing that you want to go over is a few of the songs that you liked, or that stood out to you and you think will stand out to other people. Weâ┚¬Ã¢”ž¢ll point out the first song â┚¬Ã…”Keep it comingâ┚¬? which walks the fine line of catchy and annoying. The song â┚¬Ã…”Passengerâ┚¬? is another notable song which is probably the strongest song on the record (so take that how you will). Usually, if you love the album you can keep on talking about all the great lyrics and melodies that the record contains.
The end of the review is for giving an overview of the good and bad things about the record. For the Love Arcade we would talk about the dancey, sometimes catchy musical beats. We would probably want to mention the cheesy lyrics and the shallowness of pretty much every song. Then, conclude with mentioning that if people wanted to check the band out they can do so at a myspace page. There you have it, step one to writing a review.

This review was awful. Honestly, the worse I’ve ever read. I don’t even want to read any more from this site. Ugh. Trying to hard to be original? Stop it.

Love Arcade is now just the guy you see on the album cover – it is called Christian Tv now. His music has been featured in JC Penny Commercials (1,2,3 turn around). Also, movies and other commercials as well. Hi music is getting radio play all over the nation (I’m in love). He has met and performed with some extremely large names in the music business for quite some time now. He is currently on tour, and continues in his extreme talent when it comes to writing and producing all of his music on his own. Go listen to his stuff, and write another review. This time you may have a different opinion. There is a lot of talent here.
