The Sound Of Girls Aloud - Girls Aloud

This was released as a Greatest Hits album and it is padded out with a few cover versions as well, it is a pretty good album if you like the manufactured pop band style of music, I much prefer dance music like the Chemical Brothers but this music has its place and having seen them perform live I can appreciate the fact that they can sing and dance and certainly put on a decent show for an audience. The album kicks off with the song that was a hit when they were created as part of one of those reality shows, Sound of the Underground has a driving almost monotone delivery to it and is a strong track to start with. After that it is a number of hits that are to ...  Read the complete review

Girls Aloud were famously formed on reality tv show Popstars the Rivals and went on to beat one true voice to the christmas number one. Ever since then, however, they have shaken off their reality tv tag and become one of the most successful pop groups around, while still managing to be credible with a variety of audiences. They are admired by NME and MTV alike, something that rarely happens to any band, let alone a pop band. With a record-breaking seventeen consecutive Top 10 singles (including three number ones), four platinum albums (including a number one) and record sales in excess of 4.2 million in the UK alone, Girls Aloud have broken records even the ...  Read the complete review

Given the fickle nature of the pop music industry, especially where singers made famous by reality TV shows are concerned, this is an album I never thought I would be listening to. If someone had told me when Girls Aloud had just won “Popstars: The Rivals” and were celebrating their first number one that they would still be going and still be successful four years later, I’d have laughed. But that is exactly what has happened. Where so many reality TV acts have failed, Girls Aloud have succeeded. Most reality TV act starts with a number one single, even now, but only Girls Aloud had thirteen Top 10 singles, all of which are featured here. Indeed, Girls ...  Read the complete review

Whether you like them or not, there is no denying that Girls Aloud are consistently at the top of their field, and despite the stigma attached to them of being a manufactured girl band, they have developed and are continuing to develop as musicians as well as just performers. The Sound Of Girls Aloud was released late in 2006, and is a 'Best Of' album of sorts, surprising in a sense as the band was only formed in 2002. Four years to already have enough hits to make a 'Best Of' album is impressive, and shows how successful they have been.
