From First to Last I've been listening to From First to Last's album, Dear Diary My Teen Angst Has a Bodycount, for the past week straight "Note to Self" is one of the most popular songs off the record. The songs goes through a bunch of changes. The sound is ever-changing. Each part of the song sounds different from the rest. My favorite part is when Sonny Moore starts singing "Note to self I miss you terribly/This is what we call a tragedy/come back to me." Then it changes into another part that repeats a few times. One thing I noticed is that the last time they repeat that part, his voice kinda squeaks when was he says "faster" in "Time starts moving faster than I can." It's quite funny. After that, they play the chorus again and then the song goes very metalish. Another song off the record is "Secrets Don't Make Friends." With lines like "You were always my enemy carefully crafting my demise" and a chorus that sings "Your words are If you ever wonder where the album got its title from just listen to "Ride the Wings Of Pestilence." The song starts off a bit hardcore, then the chorus comes in a bit less hardore and is sung more melodic. Then it goes very hardcore and they start screaming "Dear diary my teen angst bullshit has a body count." Then it calms down after a bit. Then after the chorus plays again it goes very hardcore and starts screaming "Ride of the wings of pestilence" over and over. "I Like You Better Before You Were Naked On the Internet" is a song very different from the others. It is a bit more upbeat. You mainly hear the drums in the song, with the occasional keyboard playing. The last lyric sung is "And now this mark remains and it will never ever go away." Then the drumming starts speeding up and the song ends. One of the songs that I immediately took a liking to was "Populace In Two." "To put it nicely I hope you choke" is one In the packaging, they have one side of the packet where there's the lyrics and credits printed in pink and white. Then on the back there is a mini poster you can put on your wall, so that's pretty cool. There's a hidden song on the CD. It's actually very interesting and weird. There's a part where they do a funny fake girl voice and say "nuh uh boys don't wanna get with me." Then it has a part they says "Why playing games?" which gets echoes a bit. Then then out of nowhere a rap by Major League Playa comes into the song. Then it goes straight into the kind of screaming that you hear in very metal songs. And they starts screaming "Shake it like a salt shaker." Then one of the oddest things shows up into the song. Halloween music. Ya, this one part comes in that sounds like "The One Armed Boxer vs. The Flying Guillotine" is the second song on the record. If you look at the lyrics it looks like a song about trying to figure out how to write something that's gonna fill someone with inspiration. For some reason the lyrics look like some speech you'd say before one of the songs your gonna perform. It's kinda an interesting way to write a song. One song that you wouldn't expect on this kind of record is From First to Last's acoustic song, "Emily." One thing I like about "Emily" is that Sonny sings his lungs out. Also, the song is very sweet. It would be a really good song to sing to some girl. Just make sure if her name isn't Emily, that you change the name. It has deep lyrics like "Her sparkling eyes make me weak at my words/they tremble" and "Cause there's no one in the world like Emily." So if you don't have From First to Last's CD, Dear Diary My Teen Angst Has a Bodycount, I suggest you go out and buy it right now. In my opinion, it is one of the best CDs of all time.

and I have to say it's one of the best albums I have ever heard. The CD is filled with so much variety. From metal to rapping to acoustic songs, this CD has it all.
deadly weapons/killing me destroying me," it's definitely a very rocky song.
of the lines that we'd always like to say to certain people we know. And it has a bridge that sings "Even if I spend 2004 listening to Morrisey in my car/I'm better off alone than I would be in your arms." Then after the chorus is sung after that part, there's this awesome guitar riff played.
Halloween music. I think From First to Last is the only band I have ever seen do this.
