Album Details
Ask the Jonas Brothers who theyre hoping to turn into fans with their new self-titled CD and they wont say everybody. But thats precisely what theyll mean. Were aiming for people our age, says 17-year-old Joe. But we also wanna get kids younger than us, adds 14-year-old Nick. And older people, too, 19-year-old Kevin pipes up. The highly anticipated follow-up to the New Jersey siblings 2006 debut which featured the TRL hit 'Mandy' The Jonas Brothers is sure to make good on the bands goal: Its a high-energy pop-punk disc overflowing with insanely catchy hooks, muscular guitar fuzz and mature songwriting that reveals just how much growing up the boys have done since we last heard from them. Remarkably eclectic yet bound together by the brothers trademark harmony vocals, the CD is the natural result of the wild times the Jonases have experienced lately. After spending much of 2006 supporting their debut on the road with tween-scene heavyweights such as Jesse McCartney, the Veronicas and Aly & AJ, the brothers found themselves reaching a new audience earlier this year when the Disney Channel put the bands Year 3000 video into heavy rotation. As soon as that happened, the song entered the Top 10 on iTunes and our MySpace comments doubled, Kevin marvels. It was almost impossible to keep up with the new friend requests! They worked quickly, recording the album from beginning to end in a mere 21 days, a feat they accomplished in part because they knew the material so well: Where their debut featured work by a handful of professional songwriters, The Jonas Brothers only contains songs penned by the Jonas Brothers themselves, with occasional assists by pals like Bleu (Thats Just the Way We Roll), P.J. Bianco (When You Look Me in the Eyes ) and the boys own backing band (Games ). As brothers, we just know how to work together, Nick explains.
