Thirty Seconds to Mars' latest album title – This Is War –
is more than a just a reference to the band’s personal battles, a commentary on
global crises and economic turmoil and homage to their now infamous $30,000,000
lawsuit with Virgin Records. This Is War also represents the result of an
18-month creative battle, fought ferociously, but privately, inside a studio
built into the side of a house tucked away in the
Hollywood Hills. The result: a triumphant, sonically epic game-changer that
builds on the vision laid out in their 2002 self-titled debut and 2005’s
multi-platinum A Beautiful Lie. This Is War is a major leap forward for Thirty
Seconds to Mars, one that cements the trio (lead singer and guitarist Jared
Leto, drummer Shannon Leto and guitarist Tomo Milicevic) as a world-class
arena-crushing rock band. The L.A. Times calls This Is War
“combative…sinister…the most confident-sounding thing the band has done.”
Alternative Press echoes the sentiment, giving it four stars.Listen song here:YouTube
