Ok, so this album is a bit old, but a classic none the less. They album kicks off with the approite tune of "you've done nothing" its catchy, and its only a taste of whats to come. Simple riffs, and such, soon followed by I'm not afraid. This song is done well, good lyrics, and simple but quite catchy riffs. Disconnected follows, and this song is probally the most widley known one, and it is for good reason. A great song, with good riffs, lyrics, and a great bass solo. No authority follows. this song is alright, a big drop from disconnected. I want then goes right back up, with another great guitar intro, great lyrics, and sing along chorus, this will end up your favorite for a while. The next 2 tracks are mediocre. skippable, but again they do have some strong points. #8, im trying another great song. a wonderful intro, sing along lyrics, and just a great song. really gets the point across too.
Next is Pastel, this song is up tempo, and is a catchy tune. But again, another skippable track. Nothing New sounds like disconnected, and its still a great song. You probally won't like it at first, but it grows on you. Walk away follows, and its probaly the worst song on the album, but its not a bad song at all. Do you care, my favorite song of all time on this album. A wonder bass intro to the verse, great lyrics, and awesome riffs from kieth. Robs drumming also is stepped up here, and he really was amazing for the time. They close with the tune 1,000X, which is a great way to close the album.

All that said, go and buy it. Makes you wish they wouldnt have changed the line up in the future. Its a pitty they split up. :(

Anyways i give this album a 4.5/5. :thumb:

I am currently listneing to The Bouncing Souls/Anti-Flag split on a warm sunny day and I feel happy. This CD is definately my next one to listen too. I prefer the self-titled and I'm not sure why.
