musicweb.cz/recenze/cd-adam-lambert-trespassing-rozhodne-prodaAdam's new album is definitely worth buying30 year old singer Adam Lambert from Indianapolis, a son of an interior designer and a program manager who was raised in a Jewish faith together with his brother released album #2 full of dynamic but also calm relaxed songs.
Adam Lambert has been devoted to art since his childhood. At the age of 10 he began his theater performances and worked as a theater actor until 2009. Then he attented an audition to American Idol where he sang the songs Bohemian Rhapsody and Rock With You. Later in the competion he performed with MJ’s Black or White or a cover version of The Ring Of Fire. The singer made it into the final where he got to sing with legendary bands Kiss and Queen. His new album called
Trespassing starts roughly, with an eponymous track. From the very beginning there can be heard a 'word machine gun' of Adam‘s voice. Omnipresent clapping is very enriching aspect because it makes the track more rhythmic. Without reading the name of another track from TP, the listener will be surprised by Adams '
cuckooing' in certain passages of the chorus. At the beginning it seems rather ridiculous but after listening the song more than once, you find out that 'cuckooing' is the essential tune of the track.
Ant then we get to a track #3 called
Shady which resulted from Adam's collaboration with Nile Rodgers and Sam Sparro but the following track called
Kickin' In is definitely more remarkable. From the very first seconds that piece is completely different from the rest of the album. More dancy, more pop, more catchy is made for clubs. None of the other tracks will be so successful regarding dance scene.
Naked Love is a typical radio hit. It makes you wanna dance. Actually its a very good song. As the name suggests,
Pop That Lock is rather a pop hit, and it's obvious that Adam is made for singing pop rock.
And then there is a title track
Better Than I Know Myself. Not only is it the most well-known song from the album but it's also the best one. The music, the lyrics, the placing of the song on the tracklist and Lambert's voice makes the song unique. The track #9
Broken English begins in 'Backstreetboy-ish' style and it remains in the same mode for the rest of the song. I'd like to pick up the DJ who did a good job in some passages. Especially towards the end the song turns complicated to sing live. The first song on the album which calms you down is
Underneath, the song #10 starts an avalanche of remaining easy-going tracks. Adam is playing around with his voice, from the deepest to the highest notes. And although everyone is entitled to his opinion Adam really can sing hovewer the beginning of the cd may seem a bit crazy. The last track from the standard edition is
Outlaws of Love, the slowest one on the album. If you don't fall asleep and wait for #13, you won't regret!
*Runnin' is dance, it can be said summer hit. And hopefully our radios will play us also a good music (except Mandrage, their hit Matice doesn't overcome
Runnin' even if Adam and Mandrage met in face to face battle) Even if the band defeated Adam in the 'Matrix fight', there is another nice song
Take Back. The last one on the tracklist is called
Nirvana. Don't worry, this song is not another cover version of Curt Kobain's music, it's simply Adam's Nirvana. And replay it, you will feel the piece.
*Mandrage is a very successful Czech pop-rock boyband which rules airplay in Czech Republic and Slovakia. They have a hit called Srouby a Matice that would be translated as Screws and Matrixes :D The reviewer uses the metaphore to highlight Adam’s original musicin comparison with average piece of Mandrage.
Oh, I forgot to mention the most important thing, the reviewer gave Adam

I hope it's understandable :-/
ETA: I have two questions: 1. Why after I edit my post, all the smileys disappear and turn into this
[/IMG]?
2. How do I insert just a part of article with picture with spoiler?
Thanks in advance, guys.
