Playing sounds not too hard and not too soft, House of Heroes new album SAY NO MORE comes off like mainstream rock wet dream. Melodic vocals backed by a safe but strong guitar riffs make this album as a sure fit with fans of bands like Jimmy Eat World. Through the 12 tracks on this album, we really don't get a sense of this band's true potential. This is all too common with bands that play music with media-play potential in mind. Another thing that turned me away from this album was the all-too-sweet and high-pitched vocals. I would have loved to hear the music be a little bit more experimental. I guess you can't always get what you wish for.
