Under My Skin

Under My Skin

Star FullStar FullStar FullStar FullStar Empty

With her breakthrough 2002 debut, Let Go , Avril Lavigne tried to market herself as the bona fide alternative to tarty teen queens, Britney and Christina. Her guitar-pop hits were irresistibly bratty but the whole "Complicated" teen pose was a little hard to swallow, especially since two songwriters called the Matrix--who had at least twenty years on the Canadian singer--fed her most of the material. Having had the chance to live a little, Lavigne returns to make good on her angsty image with Under My Skin , an album rippling with delightfully dour melodies and heartfelt lyrics about loneliness ("How Does It Feel") and fractured relationships ("Don't Tell Me"). Is it cliched? Sure. Will it scare off her necktie and t-shirt wearing fans? Possibly. But there's nothing quite as satisfying as watching a teen-pop icon actually reveal her soul. -- Jaan Uhelszki

Overall Rating: Star FullStar FullStar FullStar FullStar Empty ( 21 reviews )
  1. Star FullStar FullStar FullStar FullStar Empty Posted: Jul 24 2009

    Many times, more than not, follow up albums are usually disappointing that at best have one or two good songs--"Under My Skin" is definitely NOT disappointing--just listen to the MP3 samples! The only reason I did not give this CD five stars is because I don't really care for the song "Freak Out", as it is more of a filler song than anything. The ballad song "Slipped Away" is a very nice tribute song she wrote to her grandfather, although I don't think it really fits the theme of the album title ("Under My Skin")(maybe it should have been a single or put on another CD?). Overall, I would recommend this CD and her other one "Let Go" for A.L. fans, but I would not recommend her latest release, "The Best Damn Thing."
