NEWS/REVIEWS

MAY/06

"My December," to be released early this summer, it's easy to believe that she's spent time in a mosh pit. Produced by David Kahne, who's guided new-wave rockers from the Bangles to Sugar Ray to the Strokes, and written almost entirely by Clarkson with several members of her touring band, the album features revered punk bassist Mike Watt on several tracks and stresses Clarkson's avenging-angel vocals throughout. The up-tempo songs, with un-pretty titles such as "Hole" and "Judas," spruce up the often-maligned pop-metal template with sharp guitar riffs and the occasional electro-clash beat. It's not rock, says Clarkson: "Rock, to me, is like AC/DC, Led Zeppelin, Aerosmith." But it is hard and, in its own way, extreme.


"My December" is all about Clarkson's voice — and not only the succulent, slightly dark timbre of her alto, or her ability to nail those shirt-ripping high notes that say "freedom" in rock 'n' roll speak. The lyrics, many inspired by a bout of despair Clarkson suffered at the height of her newfound fame, are genuinely heart-baring. "I found myself at the lowest of lows," she said of that period, when she realized that several intimates had betrayed her trust.


"It is very aggressive," Clarkson said. "And it might be too much. But I just needed to be able to make this record and not have so many hands in the cookie jar saying, 'Pull this string, pull that string.' I was like, 'Just give me this one thing, and I will make whatever record you want next time.' Now, I need this, for me."

I wish her ALL THE SUCCESS IN THE WORLD, but im really disappointed only with her first single =(

Maybe, she will star rocking at the 2nd...Same luck? Who knows.

MrDeeds you wont be disappointed some of the other songs. she preformed them on tour and they are amazing.

I saw Kelly on the Addicted Tour and she sang a song called "Anymore." It stuck with me after hearing it just that once so I'm REALLY hoping it's on "My December."

I love Come Here and All I Know.
Wish the studio versions could be leaked.

they said there are bonus tracks so im hoping "anymore" or "all i know" are the bonus tracks. All I Know is one of the best songs she has written and sang.

I wonder how Kelly did "Yeah" in the studio because i remember not being a huge fan out the chorus in the song, but the verse and bridge was amazing! Hopefully she added horns like she said she will.

I want to hear "Don't" on the album:

I'd like to hear a studio/polished version of this.

Whoever mentioned "All I Know," thats a great song. Hopefully that would be the missing song on the tracklist.

oh brother. I like Kelly but this sounds ridiculous--as if she didn't hit us over the head repeatedly with these "woe-is-me", pity-party anthems on her last album. She's such a drama queen. I can't stand people comparing her to Pat Benatar. Pat stood for women that knew how to roll with the punches and rise above their pain and heartbreak, Kelly on the other hand just chooses to wallow in it. She needs to be a little less pathetic and grow a backbone--I know she's capable of good music--"My December" does not sound very promising. These types of songs sound appropriate coming from adolescents, not a 25 year old woman. At least Avril learned that life's too short to be a downer all the time.

edit: I probably shouldnt say that.

wut are u talking about? how is she a dramna queen? because she has a song about her best friend who cimmited suicide or is it because she sings about love and breakup.

I like Kelly, but it bugs me how she always plays the victim in most of her songs. Miss Independent and Since U Been Gone were good because they were empowerment anthems--but she really didn't write those. I really thought "Walk Away" was the best single to finish out Breakaway because that was the one song of hers that I know she wrote and it made a statement about being able to put your problems aside and keep living life to the fullest. I'm just disappointed for Kelly, many people (especially girls) see her as a role model. We don't need some catty, theatrical, Alanis-wannabe airing out her dirty laundry--we need a girl who's capable of making quality music that's personal but not self-obsessed.

Maybe thats just you, i dont really know. And Kelly did say in an interview that NA is the only song about a good relationship that went bad on the album, and everything else is inspirational type of songs. Also for "Miss Independent" Kelly wrote the bridge and IMO that's the best part of the song.

And your saying that Kelly's music isnt a good model for young girls? I doubt that since her songs arent telling anything bad unlike the other crap on the radio these days and her attitude is great as always. Dont be so boring.

My statements are only based on the music Kelly has released so far. I haven't heard the rest of "My December" yet so I'm not going to jump to any major conclusions. I agree that her music is at least more repectable than the music we've heard from the likes of many popular artists these days. I think she is a really sweet girl--I'm just not into her overdramatic music.

canit wait!! they all sound great!!

Why don't you like "Never again"? I think it's such a good song.

I love " Don't " . It's a solfsong and I think it will ve successfull like BOU if it release like a single :"< But My December have no song tittle "Don't " T-T
"May be" can be 2nd Single ??
