    Yellowcard may still stand as one of their most impressive feats yet. Serving as their most captivating and emotive release since Ocean Avenue.

    Yellowcard never feels treacly or forced. It's emo for grownups and a proper close for a band that wanted to go out on its own terms.

    This album is a perfect representation of what this band has and always will be--brave, real, and resolutely striving for something different.

    Although they’ve occasionally strayed from that style of pop-punk over the 13 years since that collection debuted in 2003, their tenth and final record features glimmers of their former selves--for better and for worse.

From the upbeat opening track "Rest inAlthough the band is calling it quits, there's no doubt that they ended their career on a high note. From the upbeat opening track "Rest in Peace" to the beautiful 7 minute finale "Fields and Fences", this ten track album beautifully represents what the band has stood for. With tracks such as "Got Yours" which pays homage to early 2000's pop punk, and the haunting piano track "Leave a Light On" which will tear at your heart strings, the band really laid it all out there with a sense of truth and honesty that will forever reflect the group in a positive light.… Expand
