  The Music Box: The Bella Fayes - The Truth in a Beautiful Lie (Album Review)
Being no stranger to my own basal instincts, I brought the disc with me on a plane trip figuring that if the band is awful, I could pass the time over Ohio staring at the pictures of the girls.
You can imagine how surprised I was to discover the truth behind this beautiful lie: The Bella Fayes is a band consisting of four very unfeminine dudes from Portland, Oregon.
My victimization is mitigated by the fact that The Truth in a Beautiful Lie is a great disc full of masterful songwriting and shimmering power pop.

 30 Seconds to Mars - A Beautiful Lie   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
A Beautiful Lie is a lot more rock-oriented than I had anticipated as well.
The song "Beautiful Lie" and its angst ridden rumble is one of the best I have heard this year hands down.
Also of note is the fact that first edition copies of A Beautiful Lie feature a pair of secret bonus tracks: a brand new song and a Bjork cover.

 HYBRIDMAGAZINE.COM | REVIEWS | 30 Seconds to Mars - A Beautiful Lie album review
All in all, A Beautiful Lie is a decent sounding CD - but, that's really all that can be said about it.
A Beautiful Lie begins with "Attack." Apparently the band was attacked by members of Hoobastank and Chevelle before recording this song.
It's one built of deception and the "lies [he] has created." Luckily, he "swears to God [he'll] find [himself] in the end." But considering this "story" is just a bunch of clichés with absolutely no reference point, we have virtually no idea who he is or what he's talking about.

 Amy Studt Beautiful Lie lyrics
I can say it will be fine, it's a beautiful lie, So please, don't leave it all up to me. I see the way they talk with you, They're always trying to prove, that they are better.
It's a beautiful lie, lost in silence, trapped by violence, oh.
I can say it will be fine, it's a beautiful lie, So please, don't leave it all up to me. You don't have nothing but pride, to keep you alive, yeah.

 Rolling Stone : A Beautiful Lie : Review
But the real trouble with heavy downers such as "The Kill" and the lead single, "Attack," comes from his sidemen and his big-ass studio budget, both of which ensure that Life's Incubus-indebted guitar sound is as sleekly overwrought as Leto's singing.
ABL is more conservative but with much more passion that the s/t.

 Tower Records - A Beautiful Lie - 30 Seconds To Mars
On the group's second album, A BEAUTIFUL LIE, Leto is a remarkably versatile vocalist and the band's sole songwriter, leading the quartet through potent tracks that recall A Perfect Circle and Deftones.
Three years after their debut album, 30 Seconds to Mars delivers unto us "A Beautiful Lie", a spectacular rock album that surprisingly enough sounds nothings like their first (much to the disappointment of fans that expect bands to sound the same on every CD!).
A Beautiful Lie, is in many ways different from their self titled album as it is same.

But with their second album "a beautiful lie" they take a different approach.
Recorded at the beginning of 2005, 'A Beautiful Lie' takes the band in somewhat of a more uniform and united direction.
The debut was a collection of amazing songs with familiar themes, but contained not enough packaged flow and in some cases seemed to have been written with a hit-or-miss methodology.

 CD Review: 30 Seconds to Mars - A Beautiful Lie @ Blogcritics.org (via CobWeb/3.1 planetlab2.cs.unc.edu)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
It is the core message of the theme to A Beautiful Lie that looks at the demons of the human spirit; those that exist inside us, and those that plague our relationships.
A Beautiful Lie was produced by Josh Abraham who won a Grammy for his work on the Velvet Revolver album.
He has a haunting beautiful voice, it sounds like you're hearing the music from inside his head or as if he was projecting it down to you from a long way off but his melodies sound too much alike, and all seem to convey just one type of emotion.

Don't get me wrong, their debut was great, but for a band establishing themselves, it was too broad, too spacey, and too high concept for people to really give it a fair chance.
So it's no surprise that for their second album, "A Beautiful Lie," 30 Seconds To Mars have trimmed the fat off and streamlined their music quite a bit.
Overall, "A Beautiful Lie" is a step-up for 30 Seconds To Mars.

 Randomville: 30 Seconds to Mars - A Beautiful Lie
Just as refreshing is the discovery that this young band is able to pull off an equally exciting sophomore record in A Beautiful Lie.
The first track “Attack” opens with a synthesizer riff that almost warns of a fledgling band that lost their way from the stages of rock to the chasm of synth-pop limbo, but that feeling is quickly lost when the guitars and vocals begin simultaneously.
Leto’s scream during the last stanzas of “goodbye” sound like he’s saying goodbye to everyone and everything that was ever important to him in his life, and its easy to make his scream your own when reflecting on your own life’s trials.

 Ed Harcourt - The Beautiful Lie | Sound Generator (via CobWeb/3.1 planetlab2.cs.unc.edu)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
While largely conforming to this generic blueprint, Ed Harcourt also seeks to challenge it with "The Beautiful Lie", his third album and the follow-up to 2004's "Strangers".
While the staple tools of piano, acoustic guitar and string section are still here in abundance, Harcourt has introduced a range of styles to supplement the troubadour's safety net of the heartbroken and world-weary ballad.
Yet despite this, there is enough variance in style and emotion to make "The Beautiful Lie" a paradox well worth buying into.

We sat in fear and allowed a few men to go unchecked in the name of "security" when rights given to us by the men that founded this country were lost.
We were no longer allowed to gather in the name of certain principals, we were no longer able to openly in fear of our neighbors telling secrets, and finally we were no longer able to feel belonging to government; suddenly we were trapped by it.

 30 Seconds To Mars - A Beautiful Lie @ Halo-17.net
Of course, if the band's logo, which features three skulls arranged around a wheel in a mock biohazard symbol, or the cover of this album, which features a crowd of mimes with emo haircuts didn't clue you in, then you really deserve everything that you get when you listen to this.
Throughout the entire runtime of the album, absolutely nothing is said that isn't either inane, silly, or rooted in cliché.
Maybe the beautiful lie was when the band told the record company execs that this album was ready to be released.

Lucky for us, A Beautiful Lie is by and large a strong second outing, building on the ideas of their debut and taking their sound in new directions.
A Beautiful Lie is a strong, bass driven entity featuring a cunning build up into the awe-inspiring chorus.
While 30 Seconds to Mars’ latest album won’t overwhelm you with eight-minute songs or slick guitar solos, if a solid rock album is what you’re after, then A Beautiful Lie delivers.

It was released on August 16, 2005 under Virgin Records.
and the music was heavily atmospheric, the lyrics of A Beautiful Lie are "personal and less cerebral" and the music takes on a more alternative rock approach.
To further promote the album, the band included "golden passes" with three of the special versions of the album that entitled the buyer free entrance and backstage access to any 30 Seconds to Mars show for life.

 CD Baby: THE BELLA FAYES: The Truth In A Beautiful Lie
The band was also featured on FOX 49 television performing "In the Transistor's Glow" in its entirety in order to promote the Bella Fayes showcase at the Musicfest Northwest Music Conference in September.
Their latest release, 'The Truth in a Beautiful Lie' finds them equally occupied with rhythm and melody, but certainly not forgetting the base of rock music upon which the band was founded.
Pushing through sonic strata of guitars, bass and percussion (and the occasional keyboard melody) this group deftly imports the spine and attitude of familiar rock names, and thrusts them forward to where songwriting and vocals are more accessible, and the music can be recorded in the most flattering manner.

An actor's brand may be the spark that gets a band noticed, but at the same time, it can create a bigger hurdle to clear.
A Beautiful Lie trims some of the fat and brings forth a more composed and secure singer comfortable in his own skin.
With his brother Shannon behind the drums, Matt Wachter on the Bass and Tomo Milicivitch's guitar work, 30 Seconds to Mars hopes to rocket to stardom and cement their place in the music landscape.

 IGN: A Beautiful Lie Review
And though I believe I owe him a great deal for Requiem For a Dream and the most memorable scene in American Psycho and his being utterly !@#$ing gorgeous, I was in fact forced to pull the Leto card because it's the most interesting thing about A Beautiful Lie.
But if the man resents his "star power" - and this "star power" is one of the album's few aspects worth remarking upon - then there is a disconnect that needs to be resolved before the next record saturates the airwaves.

Matt chimes in (as he could probably tell I was flummoxed by the idea of perpetual darkness as artistic inspiration) with, "I think the record would have been a much, much different record if we had spent the entire time in Los Angeles."
A Beautiful Lie is much more emotionally and musically accessible than the debut, not only reaching across national boundaries with some ethnic inspired flair here and there, but also encompassing different genres with less production, more realism.
Scheduled to land some time in mid-August, it ended up being pushed to the end of the month.
