I'm kind of disapointed. I'm not the biggest 30 Seconds to Mars fan, but A Beautiful Lie was a great album. Now comes This is War, and what I loved about ABL isn't here at all. The hard rock tracks, the fast paced lyrics from, for example, Battle of One, aren't here to be find. Maybe I still have to grow on this album, very much like I had to with Arctic Monkeys' Humbug. When an artist tries something new, and I don't mean something worse, it sometimes brings those that wanted a little more of the same down. But good for them, because an artist can only trully grow with a vast experience of sonorities. And that, that we get here. Kings and Queens is a great track for example, more slow paced than we are used to from 30STM. And something we get plenty through the whole album is chorus and more chorus during the songs, which is great at first, but rapidly become tiresome. A good attempt but not their best.
6/10
