man this cd is just incredible,ive been listening to this for 2 years now and i still love it.no matter how many bands you can compare them to they still have a sound that only they could pull off-and they definately pull it off with authority and style-which is more than i can say for at least 75% of music out there.i mean these guys are so good that i have a hard time believing that they still havent hit the mainstream but i dont know if the public is ready.id would compare them to 311 but i dont think 311 has anything on dial-7.....just go get it! and go to their website and order their other cd as well! dialse7en-later
