This is the weakest song on the CD but it's still really above par with most of what hits the "scene" these days.

Oh, Frank.. prz = plz = leet bastardization of please. Cmon now, I was kidding.

I think its better than Black Mamba personally. Can't wait to buy this album, all the songs I've heard are amazingly good!

this cd is excellent. i know this is scene point suicide, but this is a lot better than armor for sleep in my humble opinion.

I can't wait for this CD to come out. I heard this song at their concert. I went to Best Buy today; they didn't have Anberlin. :headshake Hopefully, they'll have TAI when I go.

This album is the best in it's entire genre. All the other tatecore bands are going to have to step it up a notch. Oh wait, this is the only tatecore band? And "-core" anything is stupid? Oh yeah, I forgot. But seriously, I love the band, the record, and Bill.

I received the cd today since I preordered it off Fueled By Ramen, and wow it is incredible. I personally enjoy every song on it!

yeah it is one of the weaker tracks, but it definitely won't detract from an album that will possibly be one of the years best. And having seen them a bajillion times, their live shows are pretty enjoyable.

and if anyone compares them to taking back sunday and beckett to lazzara one more time, im going to crack some effing skulls.

Nail in the coffin for me, this album looks like it's going to be forgettable.

Edit: On second thought, that was harsh. I'ma give them another listen.

I disagree this is one of my favorite songs on the album. It is kind of refreshing and the guitar melody is cool, it's like kind of eerie. Also Bill really shows of his vocal skills here. Cool song.

my thoughts exactly. they do not sound like taking back sunday. there are no dual vocals. william does not swing the mic and only sing half the time becuase hes spazzing out like a coke head. the music doesnt even sound similar, the academy is... has much more of a variety to them then taking back sunday.

seriously. i don't get the comparisons at all. if anything they sound like the Get Up Kids. when I have my iTunes on shuffle I mistake Academy for TGUK all the time.

Beckett does look a little like Lazarra when he tries to brush the hair out of his eyes and when he wears clothes two sizes too small for him and when he kinda does the bounce around thingie...only much more feminine. Cool guy. It was sad, though, when I saw them, he was the only one that did any talking. He was dressed in white and every other memeber of the band had some dull brown. I couldn't tell if he stole the spotlight or if the other members just let him have it, but he was the only one who contributed anything to the show in terms of energy and presence.
