I agree with You Better Pray! Not a good single, not at all. Also the lyrics in this album are just dire.

However I think the vocals are amazing, and the genre they are trying to reach, they have certainly kicked ass in nailing that.

Great review Steve, my thoughts exactly concerning this album. In fact, I'd made the same comparison of 'You Better Pray' to Nickelback. Great minds...

If you really listen to Lonely Road, it will grow on you. I swear. It's not really that bad, just way different from their previous album. However, I do prefer Don't You Fake It to this one.

Yeah, my sentiments exactly.
But the lyrics are pretty good, in my humble opinion, for Pen & Paper.

Okay so I've only head a few of the songs from the new CD and i agree they suk..
The last album was better..
How can they go from having a bit of and edge to none atal?

i loved their old album... false pretense/face down/grim good-bye... but this is shit... y?

The record that made RJA disappear.

i hate this record, espesh compared to their first CD

You Better Pray.. is kindof cool. But it gets pretty lame, and... well just bad after a while

when i hheard
you better pray
i was like what the fuck.
The whold album sonunds the same ,the songs sound the same to

I admit I gave into the arousal around the band and bought The first album.
I admit I loved it, but

AFTER LISTENING TO
You Better Pray
I gave up on the band altogether....

Sucks but who cares...
they were just 5 lucky dudes from Florida

Great, truthful review.

What happened to them?

this band fell so far so fast :'(
