"Recover is amazing, this album is my current favorite of theirs. its definately much different from their first full length album; this album sounds more like their EP. any one who likes the way they sound on the CD should check them out live, they are one of the best live groups i have ever seen. check them out, BUY THIS ALBUM and tell your friends..."
Great Contrast to the Previous

"I personally think this is a great album. But to say it's not just because it's different from the old material is just plain ridiculous. I think it's hard for people to understand that when bands get together they write songs that WILL NOT sound the same. That's just stupid. Where's the challenge and fun in that?? Changes will happen while playing in a band, and to that I say viva la Recover! All these people who do not know how it is to be in a band needs to realize every band's sound will change over time. Rock on Reco! Very original!"
Come on now...

"OK, this might be the saddest thing that has happened to me in a while. for starters, i love recover. i always will. but come on...if any of you know recover well, you know how good "this is not recover" sounded. (produced by Brian McTernan. amazingly at that) i heard their new cd was coming soon and i got VERY excited. a month before it came out my friend told me he had a copy of it. i said i wouldnt listen to it out of respect for the band...but i ended up listening anyways. i couldnt wait. i thought...gross, this must be a demo of the new stuff...this sounds BAD. but sure enough, i bought the cd the day it came out and...it sounds bad. i heard they were supposed to go to a great place in LA (NRG i think) but they spent all the recording money on drugs and recorded it in some guys house. i guess this is more a review of the sound quality...but hey you have to LISTEN to the cd right? this is hard to listen to. song writing has downgraded. dans voice has downgraded. but i still give it a 3 because i love them. GO BACK TO BRIAN!"
Ehhh, i've heard better

"Well let's make this short and simple.
This album is okay as it's own seperate entity. However, when compared to Rodeo&Picasso or their little ep, it kind of sucks. This cd is so much different from what they used to be. If this were their only piece of work it would probably be fairly decent, but it's such a change from their older stuff it's kind of jarring. There's also some kind of weird 3 minute or so pre-gap between song 10 and 11, i don't know why, but it annoys the hell out of me."
Great Band!
