Good Charlotte brothers Joel and Benji Madden were at The Grove Tuesday to promote their brand new album, Cardiology, which was released on the same day. Joel’s is engaged to Nicole Richie
Describing the sound to MTV news, Joel Madden said it would sound a lot like Blink-182.[2][3] Joel Madden went on to say in the same MTV interview that “There’s nothing dance-y on the record, though, at all, which is different from our last one,” [4] further implying a movement away from the sound of Good Morning Revival.
The role of being a parent is a part of their music on ‘Cardiology,’ one that has directly influenced the writing of the album. “[There’s] a song that I wrote for my daughter called ‘Harlow’s Song,’ and it was originally like a lullaby, and then [Benji] heard it and really liked it, and the guys heard it and they all liked it,” Joel says. “I’ve never written a song like that. It was pretty interesting. It’s like a straight love song for somebody. It’s a lullaby, and it ended up being on the record. I’ve never really had the ability to write songs like that. So I guess my life has changed a lot. ”
