CD Review: A Day To Remember – Homesick (Deluxe Edition – 2009)
A Day To Remember have re-released a nice little gift for their fans in the form of a HOMESICK Deluxe Edition. The album has been re-released with a few extra goodies for all of the pop-mosh fanatics out there.
Available options of this album are are:
Homesick [Deluxe Edition CD/DVD]
The CD quickly opens up with the group changing the renowned “A Day To Remember” introduction and straight into a heavy breakdown. The CD then grows into what A Day To Remember are known for, the pop-mosh genre with heavy breakdowns, many group vocals, and upbeat music that makes you want to get up and move. Just like you have come to know from the band the vocals are outstanding. Jeremy McKinnon keeps true to his fans with the lows and highs of his voice and blows fans away. The album also features some guest appearances on various tracks including “I’m Made of Wax, Larry, What are You Made of?” (featuring Mike Hranica of The Devil Wears Prada), “Welcome to the Family” (featuring Vincent Bennett of The Acacia Strain), and “If It Means a Lot to You” featuring Sierra Kusterbeck of VersaEmerge)
The Deluxe Edition was released with two bonus tracks “Homesick (Acoustic)” and “Another Song About the Weekend (Acoustic)” which are amazing acoustic versions of such great and powerful songs. The Deluxe Edition also includes a DVD with over two hours of dvd footage featuring; tour bloopers, the entire live in switzerland set, some fun facts and behind the scenes of the band and much more. Alongside the CD and DVD comes a booklet of fan photos, and various photographs of the band packed with goodies any A Day To Remember fan would enjoy. It truly is a great package.
HOMESICK Deluxe Edition is absolutely worth the money for any fan of the band. Personally I think that HOMESICK is one of the best albums A Day To Remember have put out to date, and the fact that they re-released it in a Deluxe Edition is amazing. If you have some extra cash laying around and want to pick up something worth watching and listening to I would highly suggest this.
