Album Notes Angels & Airwaves: Tom DeLonge (vocals, guitar); David Kennedy (guitar); Ryan Sinn (bass guitar); Atom Willard (drums). Guitarist Tom DeLonge's post-Blink-182 band Angels & Airwaves' 2006 debut album is an attractive blend of shimmering electronica and alternative rock, conjuring the glory days of 1980s pop with shiny, anthemic songs like the album-opening "Valkyrie Missile" and the stomping stadium rock of "Distraction." WE DON'T NEED TO WHISPER also revives the dormant notion of the concept album, with several songs taken from a projected film based on episodes from DeLonge's life. Think U2 without the messianic overtones, with a hint of Genesis thrown in for good measure. Editorial Reviews Kerrang Alternative Press Spin | See an error? Submit a change request | ||||||||||||
Top Reviews Review created: 06/07/06 by: 8 of 9 people found this review helpful. I was really pleasantly surprised when I throw on the new Angels and Airwaves album (We Don't Need to Whisper) album on a friend's recommendation while driving up to Napa Valley over Memorial Weekend... the car loved it (or at least the passengers). We listened to the CD 3 times during the weekend. My favorite track is the first - but the CD builds and builds - really making great use of the instrumentals and shifts in volume and sound. Terrific - along with Gnarls Barkley, the best new CD I've listened to for the past few months! 1. Valkyrie Missile 2. Distraction 3. Do It For Me Now 4. The Adventure 5. A Little's Enough 6.
