Rixton is a band from Manchester England who has come out with a new album “Let the Road” last March. If you are a fan of songs that sounds the same as the song before it then this album is for you.

Let me first start off by saying that all the songs on the album aren’t that bad. The one or two songs that aren’t about past relationships are fairly good; they’re upbeat and have a fun feeling to them.

Instead of listing my favorite tracks (of which there are none) I will list my least favorite tracks. These include: “Let The Road”, “Wait On Me,”  “Appreciated,” “Beautiful Excuses,” “Me and My Broken Heart,” “I like Girls,” “Speakerphone,” “We All Want the Same Thing,” and “Whole.”  Not only are these songs monotonous and tedious to listen to,  they also all have around the same tempo.

There is one song that I somewhat enjoyed, it was “Hotel Ceiling.” Although this song was similar to other songs, the lyrics were interesting.  They were deep and meaningful, unlike nearly every other song.

In my personal opinion this album should not cost $9.99 on iTunes. On a scale of 1 – 10 this album earned a 4 at best.
