Energy filled music with a message of returning home, and finding yourself.

A relaxing evening in a grass field staring at the stars.

The openings to several songs such as: Into Oblivion (Reunion), All Hands On Deck Part 2: Open Water, The Sweetest Wave. These openings give a sense of awe, and epic-ness to the album.

Several of the songs weren't particularly memorable, but are still good.

Find myself, and my way of life.

Good about myself, like though I have strayed, home is there, and there is more for me to do.

Funeral For A Friend are very good at mixing many genres together that need boosts such as the general Rock, and power pop genres, and making them their own. FFAF is from the UK.

It can't help but open your eyes to what's around you.

In my personal opinion this album gets an overall average of 4.5/5 with its only real flaw is how several songs don't stick, even though they add to it and give it meat.

Thanks to Myspace.com for hosting this album and Funeral For A Friend for giving Myspace the album to post for all to listen to until its release in Mid-May.
