Bad Politics but Great Music
Smile Empty Soul will be annoying if you pay attention to the words in This Is War, but their music at its core is excellent. Its not just loud obnoxious noise, they have really good guitars and have some beautiful songs like The Other Side and With This Knife. Maybe its just me but the...

Finding Soul In Todays Empty Music Industry
Modern bands today lack emotion,that simple.It seems as though Smile Empty Soul have found a loop hole around this towering issue,providing some of the most emotional and powerful music of this decade(so far)."Silhouettes" is a stunning song from the opening notes echoing to the disenchanting...

Soul indeed. Proof that there can be power in simplicity
Smile Empty Soul is my favorite band and has been for a while. Most music purists don't like their simple sound, but I wouldn't expect the average listener to appreciate the true amount of soul and emotion in their songs.The insturmentals are very simple, yes, but they do not sound awful by any...

Is this what constitutes "deep" lyrics?
Just begin by looking at the titles of the songs on the back and you already know what you're getting into. The lyrics are supposed to be deep but they come off as condescending, self-righteous and self-pitying. He's angry and depressed for the most shallow of reasons and tries to tell us...

Not all Bad
This is not a band that deserves a 5 star rating. Now before you all start whining and complaining about my rating, listen and here my words. I do not think that they are a bad band, they are not bad at all... I just do not hand out high ratings like they are pieces of candy to a kid. You must...

Remarkable and Enlightening to the Realisms of the World Today
My friend had let me borrow Smile Empty Soul about a year ago. She had told me that it was slightly depressing, which indeed it can be. I had never heard of Smile Empty Soul prior to this and was astonished by what I had heard. Smile Empty Soul hails with realism and enlightenment of the...

Can't wait for their Sophomore Album!
After hearing 'Bottom of a Bottle' countless times on the radio, i picked this up, not knowing not what to expect. Boy i was glad i did! I also like Trapt, Breaking Benjamin, Crossfade, who all fit into this same kinda modern rock-genre. But for some reason SES stands out.Powerful lyrics,...

All Smiles For Your Empty Soul!!!
This album is pure genius with so much good tracking and creativity put forth in it. I hope that their next album does in fact get released because I would be sad to see them quit the business. This is a band that deserves to stay and steal the spotlight. They definitely deserve 16 minutes of...

Great Band With Great Lyrics
When you look at Smile Empty Soul's cd first you need to ask yourself do you want to hear a quality cd? Do you want to hear music that is pretty much about real life issues? And most importantly do you like to hear musis with great lyrics? If you answered yes to any of these then you'll want to...

Please don't sell yourself short
Hopefully, most people are actually much more intelligent than they'd have me believe. I'm clinging to the idea that, while it might SEEM sort of like the whole world has gone barking mad (as evidenced in everyone's insane admiration for obsolete music groups like Smile Empty Soul), there's...
