Tiger Army - Forever Fades Away - B-
A good start, but they need to take the tempo up a notch to get their sound down right.
The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus - Face Down - B-
A catchy tune, but nothing particularly special from what appears to be the new Jimmy Eat World.
Reel Big Fish - Party Down - B-
This genre is really hit or miss and this song isn't catchy enough to be considered a "hit".
H.I.M. - Kiss Of Dawn - B-
Decent, but not remarkable, metal but not loud, screechy or sludgy. Essentially, the prototype H.I.M. song.
Deepfield - Get It - B-
Not bad for a debut, but nothing really notable.
Yellowcard - Light Up The Sky - B-
A typical unremarkable emo pop song from Yellowcard. Dull, but not awful.
The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus - Your Guardian Angel - B-
Dull, but not particularly irritating.
Within Temptation - What Have You Done - B-
A halfway decent Evanescence rip-off that doesn't get annoying as fast as most Evanescence songs.
Travis - Closer - B-
A far below average tune from Travis is boring and too slow with no notable hooks.
Pepper - Your Face - B-
Lousy lyrics hold back an otherwise alright song.
Wired All Wrong - Elevatin' - C+
A dull indie pop song that doesn't take off.
The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus - False Pretense - C+
A particularly dull pop punk song with a lousy hook.
Buckcherry - Broken Glass - C+
Buckcherry minus a solid hook = just plain average.
Trivium - The Rising - C+
A fairly dumb metal song with a lame chorus and no notable solos to prop it up.
Jesse Malin - Broken Radio - C+
A dull, adult contemporary song with no hook to it. Not a fun experience.
Atreyu - Becoming The Bull - C+
Above average for a metal song, but still nothing more than ordinary.
Hurt - Ten Ton Brick - C
I'd like to say this is a disappointment, but I've never had high hopes for this particular metal band in the first place.
Five Finger Death Punch - The Bleeding - C
Yet another new sludge metal band with little going for it. These things must breed in litters...
Circus Diablo - Loaded - C
A completely average metal song with nothing distinct to prop it up.
Blaqk Audio - Stiff Kittens - C
A dull techno-flavored indie song with an 80s sound and not a lot going for it.
Underoath - You're Ever So Inviting - D+
Typical death metal. Swirling guitars ruined by wretched vocals.
Hellyeah - Alcohaulin' Ass - D+
A dumb, metal song with terrible lyrics and a bad hook. This is the type of stuff Saliva thinks is too cheesy.
Three Days Grace - The Animal I Have Become - D
What's the appeal of this band anyway? I just don't get it. Their music isn't pleasant sounding, they don't have great hooks or lyrics or musical skills but for some reason this is the most popular rock song at the moment? Does anyone know why?
Three Days Grace - Pain - D-
I'd would also rather have you feel pain than nothing at all, Three Days Grace. Lots of pain. Enough pain to equal the suffering you've caused anyone with a radio in the last 4 years.
(Hed) P.E. - Suffa - F
A stupid and annoying garbage metal song. Completely worthless.

Ha! Wired All Wrong is not an indie pop band. That's weak. You must not even be listening to the song. There's no way Red Jumpsuit grades higher, unless you don't understand electro or hip hop or big beat.
Nice to see no one got an A though, I'm guessing you're in a bad mood.
