Mest

Excellent

If you're a Mest fan, you'll love this one. Mest are another band who are friends of Good Charlotte, but their music is alot edgier. It's heavier than GC (alot heavier than songs like Girls & Boys, and Lifestyles...), but Jaded (These Years), featuring Benji Madden, is still a must for Good Charlotte fans worldwide. Don't expect fun and frolics like Simple Plan or scary gothic riffs like HIM... Mest isn't quite pop-punk but not quite deep punk. It's easy to identify to their lyrics, and the songs are good to listen to whenever, wherever... unlike some bands that drive you crazy if they're playing and you're in a bad mood. **Also, reviwers, this isn't their third album, it's their fourth. Their first album (at time of writing, is not available at Amazon), "Mo Money Mo 40'z" was released in 1998.**

This album is one of the most recent additions to my collection, and has already managed to force its way into my top 5 albums of all time. Most of the songs are chilled out and melodic, with the only real "attitude" being paraded about in opening track "Until I Met You" However, this has no real effect, because whatever Mest attempt to do, they do very well indeed. If you want more of a clue as to what Mest sound like, look no further than their friends. Good Charlotte, Goldfinger, New Found Glory et al sound similar, but at the same time Mest have enough talent to make their sound unique. With the imminent release of their album in UK record shops, I look forward to seeing them on Top Of The Pops :D

This is the best album to date, there is a change of pace in the album with slow songs such as "lost,broken,confused" and "chance of a life time" but there are more upbeat songs like "rooftops" if you like Good Charlotte or Blink this ia a must have!

This album is great i love it is always in my cd case and has been working its way around my mates who now love mest. if u like Punk Rock wit attitude and a sense of humor as well then u will love this album. the tracks on it range from deep and meaningful Jaded which featuures Benji from gc to 2000 Miles which is really rocky.

CD was described as very good condition. However, when it arrived had 3 cracks in the case amongst many scratches. The CD was really dirty and needed cleaning before I attempted to play it. However, despite the small scuffs on the shiny cd surface the CD does play.
