Album Description
Available in: Country Icon
Das selbstbetitelte Album "3 Doors Down" der amerikanischen Rockband 3 Doors Down, veröffentlicht im Jahr 2008, zeigt die Band in einer Phase musikalischer Reife und Weiterentwicklung. Mit kraftvollen Tracks wie "It's Not My Time" und "Train" bleibt die Band ihrem charakteristischen Post-Grunge-Sound treu, während sie gleichzeitig melodische und lyrische Nuancen hinzufügt, die ihre künstlerische Entwicklung widerspiegeln. Die Produktion ist sauber und poliert, was den eingängigen Refrains und dynamischen Gitarrenriffs Raum gibt, sich zu entfalten. Obwohl einige Kritiker bemängeln könnten, dass das Album wenig Risiko eingeht und sich stark an bewährten Formeln orientiert, bietet es dennoch eine solide Sammlung von Rockhymnen, die sowohl langjährige Fans als auch neue Hörer ansprechen dürften. Insgesamt stellt "3 Doors Down" ein konsistentes Werk dar, das die Stärken der Band hervorhebt und ihre Position in der Rockszene festigt.

User Album Review
Major-label rock was emo long before wispy boys with trimmed eyebrows and the occasional hint of makeup moped their way onto radio. A decade ago frat boys raised on grunge’s miserablists translated that sadness for arenas. Even then 3 Doors Down occupied unenviable real estate — more mature than Puddle Mudd, less appealingly tortured than Staind (with whom 3 Doors Down will tour this summer).

Unlike its moping peers, 3 Doors Down has always been strongest when meting out dashes of cruelty with its sullenness — “Kryptonite” (2000) has galloping drums and firm words for a former friend, and “When I’m Gone” (2002), its best song, is alluringly dark, about willfully slipping through the fingers of someone trying to save you.

But lack of specificity has also been a 3 Doors Down hallmark — the video for “When I’m Gone” turned the song into a celebration of troops heading off to war — and that blankness overwhelms their decidedly unflamboyant, often dull fourth album. “Let Me Be Myself,” a droning plea, could be aimed at a parent, a friend or a lover. “It’s the Only One You’ve Got” and “Give It to Me” are pure platitude, and just when the band’s aggression is swelling to compensate for the listless lyrics, it stops short of full assault.

Instead the band succeeds when breaking new ground. On “Train” it displays heavy-metal flair, and the singer Brad Arnold achieves a blueslike informality that bespeaks his Mississippi roots. And though “When It’s Over” is among the least imaginative musical moments here, Mr. Arnold is thankfully back to sneering: “Why do you love to see me fail so much?/’Cause on that day you crawl back on your knees/Tell me who will save you.” On an album full of sadness it’s the only moment of true catharsis. JON CARAMANICA
