专辑介绍：

It\'s \'A New Chapter\' for Anthony Callea, one of Australia\'s premier young vocalists, who returns with his eagerly-awaited sophomore studio album.

Having already smashed Australian pop history records with his debut self-titled set (featuring \'The Prayer\', \'Rain\', \'Per Sempre\' and more), Anthony has taken a more relaxed approach with \'A New Chapter\', investing time to hone his songwriting skills and perfectly craft songs that run the gamut from powerful ballads to upbeat pop with a rockier edge.

Featuring \'Live For Love\' and 14 other gems, \'A New Chapter\' is an incredible return to form.

Anthony Callea played the Idol game with his double platinum debut album, singing other people\'s songs and singing them damn well.

In Idolworld, that earns him the right to co-write his second album with the best hitmakers his record company\'s money can buy.

The result, A New Chapter is an album of two halves - ballads and pop. Indeed, it was going to be a double album until someone surely pointed out he\'s not Christina Aguilera. Callea has the voice to carry off big - and we\'re talking industrial strength - ballads.For emotion, the dramatic title track wipes the floor with bland lead single Live For Love, a bizarre choice considering it\'s the only track Callea didn\'t have a hand in writing.The title track\'s production is immense and the orchestration stirring, Callea lifting up a notch or 12 as the strings soar towards the heavens. Anyone looking for a surrogate The Prayer should look no further.
Callea occupies an unusual place in the local pop world, selling to housewives and their daughters. That dual appeal explains the album\'s other side - mid-tempo guitar pop. Perfect Mistake is pop with more edge than he\'s displayed in the past. Producer Tom Nichols (Kylie, Stephanie McIntosh) throws everything at the song - strings, guitars, huge key changes - to create a lush mini-epic.

Stranded, too, sounds like a hit in waiting. The guitars are pumped up; it\'s hardly Metallica but instantly updates his sound.

Addicted to You and Almost start off interestingly before their choruses veer too close to John Farnham soft-rock territory, the slick production removing any rough edges. At 15 tracks it\'s also too long. There\'s too many similar tempo guitar/pop songs and ballads that start to lessen each other\'s impact.Callea has learnt to hold back on the vocal acrobatics, so a simple orchestrated ballad like Here I Go Again doesn\'t get swamped, while Heartbeat is still your obligatory power ballad, but with a refreshing subtlety.At the end of the day, A New Chapter is a solid second album. Once he starts taking a few more risks, Callea will really come into his own.
