Yellowcard - Paper Wall (2007) MP3 Download
The album title Paper Walls comes from the song of the same name, which begins “Let’s burn a hole so we can climb out of these paper walls in this empty house.” It’s a reference to the barriers that built up between the band members over the years and everyone’s desire to tear down the obstacles and heal old scars.
“If you really love each other as much as we do, you want to knock those walls down and get back to the place where you enjoy being with each other and making music together,” says Key. “The song is basically saying let’s get back out there and remember why this is important to us, why we love being on stage and why we love making records.”
Album opener “The Takedown” starts with a shot – an indelible guitar hook and ferocious drums charge forth as Yellowcard’s trademark mix of airtight vocal harmonies, entwined guitar lines and flourishes of violin crackle with energy. “Fighting” brings together the band’s many strengths – tight, melodic, propulsive riffs gather steam before launching into an epic, undeniable chorus. And bruised but beautiful lead single “Light Up the Sky” has an even more massive payoff, its refrain won’t leave your head in this lifetime, but allows for some ringing dissonance beneath it all.
