Let your hair down!! Submitted on: 2009-07-20 |

With a a debut titled "Noise From the Basement" Skye can do no wrong! Now that the Disney channel has turned all the Teen artists out to this Punk/Pop rhythm it's nothing special in 2009's music market, but "Noise From The Basement" is still as charming to me as it was the day I got it home, It's one of the first album's of it's kind and deserves much respect. "Noise From The Basement" is full of fun-n-nonsense, that's what makes it so much cool. It's bratty, spunky, hyper, quirky, noisy, childish & hot power-pop/rock-punk-pop. Skye even covers a Blondie number, "Heart Of Glass" and makes it her own by dressing it up with her power-pop-punk-beats, She turns it out. "Hypocrite" "It Sucks" "I Don't Care" "Sharada" "Tangled Up In Me" & "Billy S" are all wacky pop/punk-pop perfection and so is the rest of the album. This is a fantastic Album to let loose and lose control! Turn this on and don't th!nk.

| Are you interested in teen rock, alternative rock and punk/pop/rock? OK then... No other album is as good as this album for you. I mean she ROCKS! I listen this album like everyday. In my opinion "HYPOCRITE" and "Fallen Trough" are the best songs in this album. She has her own way to rock the world. Skye is a brilliant singer and a rocker. So please don't have the smallest doubt when you clicked the button "Add to Cart". And actually this album deserves more than just 5 stars but it is all that i can give. |

For a 14 year old girl, this album is stellar. The lyrics are really bad in some songs, but thats what makes this album work. She's like a mini Avril Lavigne, except she seems to have much more of a personality. The songs are catchy and full of punch.
Although Skye is 18 now and her new album 'Sound Soldiers' is already out, I would say, pick this album if you want to know what Skye Sweetnam is all about and not the new one. Because this is where it all started.
Definitely worth it. |

This Is Much More Than Just "Noise From the Basement" Submitted on: 2006-12-02 |

Apparently Canada is full of spunky teenage girls with kicky names and brash fashion sense, ready and waiting to trick out their diary entries with professional mixing and the ragged ring of loud guitars. They'll then take the tapes to our shared border, amassing there under spangled denim signal flags, and their ensuing invasion will lighten our dreary lives with catchy tales of skipping school and kissing cuties. Unlike her predecessors, Toronto's Skye Sweetnam isn't here to complain. She secures the complicated conch Fefe Dobson so briefly held with 13 songs about one thing, which is nicely summarized in the utterly inescapable hook to "Billy S." "Feel for once what it's like to rebel now," she says, and chases it with a 21st century twist on the Bard's phrasing: "To skip or not to skip/That is the question." Noise from the Basement doesn't dwell on weighty emotions, or prop its centerpiece up in entirely unrealistically sexy situations. It's not even down with being bratty, though that style's here like magic-marker doodles on the knees of Sweetnam's jeans. No. Instead of playing rebel, this one wants a widescreen teen movie rewrite of 21st century real life. She and her people (principally a producer/writer/performer fellow named James Robertson) have rewritten the adolescent experience as a feel-good personal power trip, and set it blatantly to a tingly power-chord soundtrack mixed by shop teacher to the stars Tom Lord-Alge. Amazingly, this makes Basement purer than most of these popternative releases, for it fakes neither its immaturity nor its intent to make the notion rock. "You and your friends are dense/You don't make any sense," "It's so frustrating/You're not the type that I should be dating" -- the lines are pulled straight from Sweetnam's text message box, cleaned up with Pro Tools and auto-tuning, and promptly matched to gargantuan sugar-rock guitars. Done, done, and done. Add an opportunistic, soundtrack-ready cover of Blondie's "Heart of Glass," fill out Robertson and Sweetnam's songs with a few professionally crafted rockers in the theme of the album (opener "Number One" is gender-opposite, just-as-cocky Sum 41), and suddenly Amanda Bynes is signing on to star. And that's Noise from the Basement. It remixes every impulse and daydream from the eighth through the 12th grades; it's what youth would sound like if every teenager had a production team.
