Album Notes & Community Reviews

Seeking to shed their purely adolescent skate-punk image, the Madden brothers incorporated moodier, symphonic elements and darker thematic concepts into their third full-length. While retaining their radio-friendly pop-rock hooks, the album presents a notably more ambitious, bittersweet atmosphere.
