"The Better Life", is awsome debut for 3 Doors Down. When I first heard "Kryptonite" on the radio i knew this band would grow to become a favorite in the industry. This CD grew on me and I think it's the best release. Great songs are "Kryptonite", "Loser", "Duck and Run", and "Be Like That." This album is both hard rock and very catchy as well as some slow songs but they are easy to get into. This CD is more like a 4.5 Stars instead 4 stars.
