  1. More diverse than you might think...
  2. Where the 'Farm break new ground is by exploring far more than the quiet-loud-rage-quiet formula with real singing and everything and a fair does of pop melody that place them more on a radio-friendly rock keel than no holds bared metal.
  3. Lyrically, they've got a ways to go.... That said, Alien Ant Farm shows some real potential.

Please don't judge the album on "Smooth Criminal" as there are far better tracks to be found on here. I recommend "Courage", "Sticks and Stones", and my favorite track "Wish". Full Review »
