    This CD is great. where some songs had unbelievable choruses (1000 Days, Drifting Apart, These Days), others offered memorable beats that were carried through entire songs (Glow, Never Meant, Tia Lupe), and others had crazy-cool background music to accompany Mitchell's airtight singing (Sarah Wynn, Goodbye, Rubber Mallet, SS Recognize). And then, as a testament to all that has This CD is great. where some songs had unbelievable choruses (1000 Days, Drifting Apart, These Days), others offered memorable beats that were carried through entire songs (Glow, Never Meant, Tia Lupe), and others had crazy-cool background music to accompany Mitchell's airtight singing (Sarah Wynn, Goodbye, Rubber Mallet, SS Recognize). And then, as a testament to all that has happened to the band, they finish off with the powerful "Hope." Not only does this CD give ANThology a run for its money, but it sets the bar for just about every alt metal band out there. Expand

    I agree with Phillip G... I wasn't much intrigued by AAF from their first album, but I purchased this one b/c I thought These Days was such a catchy tune. I was not disappointed... I enjoy every single song on this album, and that rarely happens with me. Each song has it's own catchiness to it, musically, and I think Dryden Mitchell has a great, clear voice.

These guys are talented, and definitely display a great amount of versatility here. Kudos are also in order for the DeLeo Bros, whose influence is pretty obvious in alot of these tracks. Expand

    I love this CD! All the tracks are different, yet very good. I'm so happy that they remade "S.S. Recognize', that song is great. 'Glow' is probably the best song on the album, it's so cheeky!

    The album feels unfocused, and this time, Alien Ant Farm don't have a novelty hit up their sleeve. [Sep 2003, p.111]
  3. When they crank out catchy ditties on harmony-heavy cuts like "Drifting Apart," AAF sound like a bunch of old pros--old pros who are still having a blast.
