CD Reviews

A must buy
E. Meshack-Hart | Portland, OR | 09/08/2007
(5 out of 5 stars)

"I haven't purchased an entire album from ANY artist in over 3 years (why buy an enitre album when you can just buy the mp3s of the few songs you like?)....The comes the group NeedtoBreathe, hibernation over :) That's right, it's that good, every single song. Like a previous reviewer said, they did branch out on a few songs, as far as styles go, but it's like having the best of that style. the songwriting, production, message (lyrically), all top notch. Highly recommend!!"
A great breakout album
Joshua B. Hughes | Hillsboro, Il | 10/26/2008
(4 out of 5 stars)

"If you could combine indie, jazz, blues with a hint of bluegrass you would have needtobreathe. This was the first album that I have bought of theirs and overall I am very impressed with the product. For originality I would would give them an A+. Their music is not recycled or generic in any way. They have some fresh ideas and find clever musical rifts as well as lyrics. The back stretch of the album had some of the best musical structures on the album. "Looks like love" has a very unique guitar rift that sets it apart. Also "Nothing left to lose" has a pounding message and is accented by it's strong musical component.

The lyrics were well written although vague and ambigious at times. Perhaps the real star of this band is Bear Rhinehart who is the lead singer. His vocals are not generic. He has the most unique voice that is both raw and sincere.

The reason I gave it a 4 star rating was because the middle of the album had some great songs but it seemed to me that it was lagging some in comparison with the front and back stretch. I liked all the songs well but I am not sure about the continuity of the album. However, I look forward to their next album because I think the best is yet to come for this group."
Great Album
A. Williamson | Madison, MS | 10/18/2008
(4 out of 5 stars)

"I initially heard "We Could Run Away" on Music Choice's alternative rock channel on Comcast Cable. I loved the song and decided to by the cd. I was listening to it for a two weeks before realizing it was contemporary Christian. This is not a genre that I have listened to much, in the past. Wow, I may have been missing out on some great music.

Tracks 1-9 are fantastic, 10-13 are ok and I do like 14, too. You rarely can expect to get 10 great songs out of an album, today. This is coming from someone who includes Radiohead, The Killers, Arctic Monkeys, Led Zepplin, Pink Floyd, Chevelle, Keane, The Racanteurs, Ray LaMontagne, A Perfect Circle and Tool as some of his favorites.

I highly recommend this album and look forward to thier next one!"
