The song feels the same as previously released songs “From Yesterday” and “The Kill,” featured on their second album, A Beautiful Lie (Virgin Records, 2005), arguably their best album to date. The album truly starts when the title track, “This Is War,” begins. 30 Seconds to Mars has always been known for completely different and epic songs, but even the single “Kings And Queens” is nothing too special, in fact, it just kind of drags on. When first listening to This Is War, the album may seem rather bland compared to their past two albums-at least in the beginning. The latest album portrays just how crisp his voice is, however, some of the music is not good enough to back it up. He has a quality voice that is made for pure screaming. It is clear that Leto has a knack for acting, which transcends into his music career as well. Jared Leto, frontman of the band, is better known for his roles in such movies as American Psycho, Requiem For A Dream and, of course, Chapter 27 where Leto dedicated his body to play Mark David Chapman, the crazed man who murdered John Lennon 29 years ago outside of the Dakota Hotel in New York City. 30 Seconds to Mars has returned with their third album, This Is War (Virgin Records/EMI, 2009), which was released this past Tuesday.
