The band may be fronted
by actor Jared Leto (Fight Club, Requiem For A Dream), but he
makes you forget that fact five seconds into his first verse.
Leto is 1000 times more authentic than any past
actor-turned-rocker (think Russell Crowe or Keanu Reeves) and
delivers an excellent sophomore album with A Beautiful Lie
($12), which is less concept and more classic than their first.
Standout tracks: "Attack," "The Kill."
