One of my favorites!

I didn't know much about Aly and AJ when I got this CD two years ago, I just heard their two music videos on Disney Channel (Potential Breakup Song and Like Whoa). After hearing those two songs I wanted to heard more of these rock/pop singers. This must of been my favorite album for years, I have never gotten tired of hearing Insomniatic and Silence. The songs are all so different and fun to listen too. Can't wait till these very talented singers have a next album!

One single problem

My only main complaint is that the "non-remixed" version of Chemicals React isn't on here. Otherwise, I agree with most that the music is really catchy. The instruments, styles, and song patterns, I feel, are more varied than Into The Rush. I feel this album proves their musical progress.

An average album with a number of surprises.

Coming off as a Disney 'side project' music duo, you probably wouldn't hold any expectations, but "Insomnia tic" is definitely not your typical Disney flop albums.

I have the admit that still, the album has a lot of fillers and overall speaking, it's not up to Miley Cyrus' standard, but some tracks really have to be highlighted.

1."Potential Breakup Song": their only real hit so far, it's Platinum certification suggests that this maybe their best song yet, and it truly is. While being cathy and energetic as hell, its lyric is fun with an attitude.

2."Bullseye": An unexpected good track from them, it's rather pop rock-ish and the lyric isn't all that good, but it's a good track to enjoy.

3."Closure": This is one of the better tracks.

4.The division sign song: How do I type the name? Okay, whatever, this is an addictive great track.

5."Like Whoa": The chorus/verse could be developed better and the production/structure could be improved, yet it still is a very addictive cathy tune.

6."Chemicals React(Remix)": Well this is also one of the better tracks.

There are always some other decent tracks but to be honest they are pretty forgettable so overall I'd give the album 3 stars. Still worth buying!

check the cd case before opening

Christmas surprise. Gave this item as a gift imagine the surprise to open the case to find no cd or even the black cd holder wasn't inside. So check your before opening. Not even sure I'll bother to return it, it's a defect but try to prove that one, once it's opened. So all I'd get is a 50% refund. Hopefully amazon reads there reveiws & I'm not the only one this has happen to.

Parental Advisory.

They've grown alot since "Into The Rush". While you still get a similar effect with both album's "Insomniatic" is more hardcore, It focuses more on flirting, relationships and "cruising" as opposed to self-esteem, finding yourself and happiness like "into the Rush". Some of the actual music is a bit more experimental too. The title track "Insomniatic" is a heavier sound for the duo, It has a late 70's hard-rock vibe about it. Others like "Division" "Silence" & "I'm Here" along with the bonus track "Blush" are the duo's mild & acoustic sounds, Which are also very mature in concept. What I like most about "Insomniatic" is that they changed but didn't get carried away with it. They chose to explore concepts and a mild change with the music. The album starts off with the lead single titled "Potential Breakup Song" which exhibits the duo's angst toward a guy. A favorite of mine "Bullseye" is a flirty song about cruising random guys who they obviously find attractive while out on the town, and another favorite of mine "Closure" is a track about the guy that one of the members of the band is involved with is trying her patience and being driven away by it. Overall this album should have a "Parental Advisory" sticker on the front. Most of Aly & AJ's fans are under 12, They should not be able to relate to these lyrics. What's so misleading is the bubblegum sound, Their youthful voices and Girly image, This album's true meaning is all camuflouged by those things. Anyone would purchase this album for their kid and have no idea that songs like "Bullseye" are about CRUISING unfamiliar guys in public... Yeah I know it sounds a bit extreme but how else would I describe it? And if you got the deluxe edition of the album you should be familiar with the extra track "Blush" which is an acoustic song and one of the lines is "That won't lead you to my bed, So instead...". What kid under 13 and under can relate. I love these girls but i'm just sayin....
