This CD is definitely a departure from their previous releases but that doesn't make it a bad thing. This record is very ambitious and poppy. It reminds me a lot of newer Green Day. Not bad for a bunch of guys from a street punk background.

I came in with high expectations for this release, since their previous work has been stellar. However upon listening to this I was slightly disappointed. Musically it is a solid release, as are their earlier releases. With this, it seems they have tried to fashion their sound to be more along the lines of Green Day's latest albums (of which I am not a fan). If you enjoy Far From Finished's older albums then this may not be the one for you, but if you like the new Green Day stuff then this should be right up your ally. They are still a great band to see live if you get a chance.
