ONE love, blood, life
So, a band I became ashamed to say I loved as a teenager. Their last offering was mediocre, as was the one before. Still I have an attachment to their earlier music as it was a big part of my High School years, as my friends and I were about the only people who knew of them until they were on the Shrek 2 and Spiderman 2 soundtracks.
So I downloaded this album expecting not much, just out of interest to see if, like so many others they continued their descent into irrelevance and crapness.
I love this album. First of all, there are 2 discs, electric and acoustic versions of every song. Great idea. Second, the songs are the strongest they have written since The Places You Have Come To Fear the Most.
This album is easily top 10 of 09 for me.
Key tracks: Get Me Right, Everybody Learns From Disaster, Alter the Ending, Hell on the Throat.
7.9 / 10
