Lights and Sounds is the fifth studio album by American rock band Yellowcard, released on January 24, 2006, in the United States through Capitol Records. Lights and Sounds is Yellowcard's first concept album, which was inspired to reflect what the band was feeling at the time of production and how they have matured in the process.
That same year, Yellowcard did a tour celebrating the 20th anniversary of its breakout and acclaimed "Ocean Avenue" album, and indeed, it seems wild to Key how fast that time seemed to sweep past.
The follow-up single, "Only One", was certified Gold. The album was then certified Platinum in the US by July 2004 and remains as Yellowcard's commercial peak. Their fifth album, Lights and Sounds ( 2006 ), was an even bigger success on the Billboard 200, peaking within the Top 5.
Yellowcard was formed in 1997 in Jacksonville, Florida, after its members met at Douglas Anderson School of the Arts.The band got its name from a phrase its members used in high school: whenever somebody did something stupid at a party, such as spilling beer on the carpet, they cited soccer laws and gave the offender a "yellow card" for committing a "party foul".
Yellowcard began in Florida and moved to California at the onset of the aughts, signing to Capitol in 2002. "Ocean Avenue" was one of many songs the band wrote for their major-label debut, but primary lyricist Key had difficulty completing its chorus. It was nearly left off the album until Key wrote the song's anthemic refrain.
