    If you're a diehard fan, you could give Surviving a chance, but if you're only a fan of their pop punk and emo efforts, it's best to skip this one.

    Though there is plenty of positive change across ‘Surviving’, it’s clear that their strengths still lie as a fists-in-the-air rock band; the monumental ‘One Mil’ shows this best.f hope and rebirth in their own way, digging as deep as Adkins himself is.

    But my favourites are the 2 final songs Recommit and Congratulations.....neither of which would ever be release as singles, but each in their own simply brilliant songs!
    Jimmy Atkins has lost nothing of his brilliant song writing craft.
    This is a welcome return to first-to-last song album brilliance with no skip songs!    … Full Review »
