First two songs are among their best, then it goes downhill from there.

Reaching #2 on the U.S charts, ‘Until We Have Faces’, the 3rd LP from Nashville quartet Red, is their most accessible yet. Leaning toward mainstream rock, the band finds their sweet spot, delivering another catchy set of strings-assisted tunes that range from hard-hitting heavy rock to emotional ballads. Michael Barnes’ vocals are as strong as ever, while his lyrics contain the usual uplifting themes associated with Christian acts. There are 2 too many ballads & Red don’t exactly push boundaries, but otherwise this is another satisfying album from a consistent outfit. Recommended Tracks: Feed the Machine, Hymn for the Missing, Let it Burn & Faceless.

I'd rate the album song-by-song thusly (by estimated worth):



$2.00 - Feed The Machine

$1.50 - Faceless, The Outside

$1.00 - Lie To Me (Denial), Let It Burn, Watch You Crawl

$0.50 - Buried Beneath, Who We Are

$0.00 - Hymn for the Missing

-$0.50 - Best Is Yet to Come, Not Alone

"feed the machine was great, guess this wont live up. will probably still check this out. the band has been going on this hilarious crusade against people downloading the album illegally. this could have been so awesome though..."

Yet the fanatic on the cover uploaded his picture to be used for free.

Fantastic review. The summary is perfect and describes the album perfectly. I'm really loving faceless off of this. But most of all the other songs sound uninspired and boring.

I don't really think Barnes' voice sounds anything like Pete Loeffler's. He sounds almost exactly like Chris Daughtry to me, but the music isn't nearly as devoid of masculinity.

fuckin american/canadian idol are the shittiest, it's always a popularity contest and the winner is almost always the one who sings "Don't Stop Believin'" by Journey...riles me up.

so true. And every year they have the same sort of people who make the finals. There's always the average country singer (Pickler, Kerry Underwood), the guy who tries to be rockish but fails (daughtry, David Cook, Adam Lambert) and the pop guy who sings Michael Jackson. It's so predictable from year to year.

I've never read a review so close to what I feel about the album. A big step down from the first two albums. Feed The Machine is maybe their best song though.

i find it intriguing that the bonus track is better than a good portion of the album-even though it almost feels like an interlude-still super cool.

^Does 'suck' have a specif rating lower than 3? Seriously, the album is not bad, it's just boring when compared to their previous two.
