look up "emo" in the dictionary and you will find a picture of this album. this cd needs some personality. shallow songwriting, pseudo-artsy lyrics, nothing you haven't heard before. good production only takes this record so far. but i guess these guys are cool cuz they're on tooth and nail. whatever. i bought this cd used for 8 bucks and after a summer of genuinely trying to find any redeeming qualities therin sold it back. these guys try way too hard, don't waste your money.
