4.5 superb | DaveyBoy EMERITUS | October 4th 10 | With the addition of guitarist Heath Saraceno & producer Brian McTernan, Senses Fail step up to the big leagues with their 2nd LP 'Still Searching'. Energetic from the start, the album sees the New Jersey quintet mature dramatically to improve their vocals, lyrics & musicianship. The 2 singles 'Can't Be Saved' & 'Calling All Cars' are phenomenally catchy, while some surprising experimentation with dynamics on the LP's 2nd half work a treat. With next to no filler, this is an unforeseen Album of the Year contender! Recommended Tracks: Can't Be Saved, Calling All Cars, Sick or Sane, The Priest and The Matador & Still Searching.

4.0 excellent | VikkiH | July 31st 08 | This album is pretty damn good. You can tell their sound has matured as have their lyrics. They brought more complex music to us with this release and there has been alot of feeling put into this record, it's clear from the start.

5.0 classic | cleary21 | May 27th 08 | Even after nearly 4 years of constant play, this album has retained all of its emotional inertia. For whatever reason, be it a personal connection to this album's theme, the innate anguish and passion of the music, or the wonderfully memorable storyline and musicianship, Still Searching remains one of my all time favorite Cd's. We're at 250 Plays and counting.

4.5 superb | TehEric | December 9th 07 | A much more mature and musically developed Senses Fail is shown here. The vocals are more solid, and the instrumentation has drastically improved. A rather dark album with the exception of one or two songs. Definitely a step up from Let It Enfold You.

4.0 excellent | Wildcatforever | October 31st 06 | Senses Fail have improved themselves in all areas that were lacking in there full length debut, "Let It Enfold You". The singers voice is no longer annoying and the sound is varied in tracks. The album isn't as aggressive which may anger fans of there post-hardcore, it has drifted to more of a straight up punk sound.
Download: Calling All Cars, Can't Be Saved, Still Searching.

3.0 good | EasterInTheBatcave | June 9th 16 | An improvement on Let It Enfold You in every category. It's great to see Senses Fail include some experimentation and not simply rehash their previous record. The closing trio of "All the Best Cowboys Have Daddy Issues," "Negative Space," and "The Priest and the Matador" is the best part of the record, but it's a solid listen from start to finish.

4.5 superb | Rice303 | September 6th 14 | An album that once started, can not be stopped. May not be technical or even genre defining, but I'll be damned if there's any band who does typical post-hardcore formulas better then Senses Fail. As well as maintaining a concept this good

0.0 | Camstr | March 28th 12 | Senses Fail's main appeal for me has always been the pure catchiness, whether it be the soaring vocals or the catchy hooks, they've always been a fun band to listen to. This album takes the top spot out of their discoagraphy because it's the Senses Fail I love at their catchiest and most fun. Simple as that.

0.0 | | February 25th 12 | With a drastic improvement in vocals, lyricism and general instrumentation, Senses Fail have started to find their own sound as they become a more mature band, while still being held back by occasionally repetitive sections and song structures.

5.0 classic | DaisyHill | November 12th 11 | Sometimes you find an album that seems to define you at a certain point in your life. for me this is one of those albums, a blunt and bitter opinion on experiences with religion, perscription medication and feeling generaly lost in your life with Buddys ever so personal and intense lyrics.

5.0 classic | Austere | September 4th 11 | Not much to say, this is my favorite album, and it ranks as a magnum opus, a crowning achievement of the post-hardcore genre.

5.0 classic | ftdod | January 1st 11 | For me, Still Searching is the nicest album from Senses Fail, they play their songs with a passion that I've never heard before. Throughout the album, I hear a story and with the tragic ending of the last three songs (All the Best Comboys Have Daddy Issues/Negative Space/The Priest and the Matador) tell all about. Senses Fail is one of the band I would want to listen again in a couple of decennies. They hold a kind of key that keeps you on a thrill in every songs you hear from this band. They have all my admiration, for sure, especially with this album. They keep me breathless and I'm not scared to say that this is my favourite band. In the song "Still Searching", Buddy says that he lost control, that he takes a pill everyday to help him to deal with life, and I feel it. Most of bands have nice lyrics, but emotions aren't in option. Buddy's voice is awesome, guitarists and bassist puts all their talent and we can hear the result. Some subjects are repetitive, but there is a kind of variety like : Calling All Cars/Shark Attack, or Still Searching/To All the Crowded Rooms.
High-five!

2.5 average | bobafe6604 | October 2nd 08 | Take Senses Fail, add a guitarist worth a damn (good vocals too! omg!), add a pinch of radio-friendlyness... and then take half the cupcakes away because Buddy still can't sing. Sorry guys, but Buddy ruins the birthday party by not bringing anything to the table.. again. If you can't play live it doesn't count. "Still Searching" lacks the replay value of "Let it Enfold You", mainly because it reeks of radio.. ness. Not the point. Point is, a new guitarist who actually has talent and a drummer who keeps getting better can not save Senses Fail. Search for a new singer!

3.0 good | Stickman27 | April 22nd 08 | Buddy Neilson is almost shut out in this album, sure he sings alot, but his powerful emotional screams are pretty much gone. The edgy lyrics in "Let it Enfold you" seems distant. This album seems like a desperate shot at mainstream, and radio play. Sorry but i will just keep listening to my "Let it Enfold you" cd.
