Free Music Review: Lifehouse starting to move in the right direction.
Hit: 4 Stars
I have been a fan of Lifehouse since "No Name Face," and for the most part I've had mixed feelings about the band. I typically enjoy some of the songs and the values they stood for, but with "Stanley Climbfall" and "Lifehouse," their two previous releases, I've felt like the songs were rather bland with a few exceptions ("Spin" from "Stanley Climbfall" and "You and Me" from their self-titled album). This album is a vast improvement, easily their best work since "No Name Face" and signs that Lifehouse is developing more of a unique sound to establish itself in mainstream rock and adult contemperary music.
"Disarray" kicks off the album reminiscent of "No Name Face" and "Hanging by a Moment." "Disarray" comes across a bit weird in the chorus but overall is a good lead-in to the single, "First Time," which sounds similar to previous Lifehouse singles but is still a solid single.
The best songs on the album occur in succession: "Whatever It Takes," "Who We Are," "Broken," and "The Joke." The final 2 stretch out Lifehouse's range as a band the most, making the sounds both catchy and extremely memorable in their catalogue of music.
After that, the band then goes into a few stale numbers ("Bridges" and "Make Me Over" don't offer much beyond what Jason Wade has already said) but the album closes with "Learn You Inside Out" and "Storm," a beautiful ballad that shows off Wade's ability to carry a song. It, along with "Broken" and "The Joke," easily dominate this albulm. Personally I'm pleased with the purchase, and I reccomend it to all Lifehouse fans.
Free Music Review: Solid continution and evolution for Lifehouse, good all the way through.

Unfortunate that the stations in my area have just recently started to play "first time" on the air, I almost would have missed the release of this album. But I got it, and the Gang does it again, very solid rock album. Classic Lifehouse, Reminisant of Stanley Climbfall, which I feal was underated by many, and expanding upon the last album, hope to here a few more singles off of this album, not just one, You and Me overpowered the last album with it's popularity, and unfortunately curbed any other song release off of that album, no real airplay here. But I have a feelign this album will expand the group even more. Must get for Life house fans, and a great album for any collectionFree Music Review: Its Lifehouse all the way!!!

Hit: 5 Stars
I bought this on iTunes last night and listened to it this morning--I love it! Each song has its own sound to it, defying those who say all Lifehouse's songs sound the same. The songs have great messages and the beats and melodies are really contemporary and new. I'm a huge fan of this album and can't wait to see them in concert!Free Music Review: Beautifully awesome!

Once again Lifehouse's great sound is defined in their 4th album. This new album addresses their maturity as a band, and connects the dots from their past to the present.
1. Disarray-This song definitely opens the album in a great rockin' intro.
2. First Time-The single for this album; greatly put together and makes for some good on-the-go music.
3. Whatever it Takes-This is one of my favorites on the album. This song contains an emotional breakdown of rock and soul.
4. Who We Are-Nicely written lyrics, kind of a filler-song for the album.
5. Broken-This would make a good ending for a sad movie. Lyrics are great!
6. The Joke-If you had fallen asleep to the rest of the album, this song will wake you up. Jason tests the waters of his vocals, wakes the audience
7. Easier To Be-This is another one of my favorite songs. It will bring you back to your childhood with the lyrics, and draw tears with the music.
8. Make Me Over-This song sets the mood for the rest of the album. There's a hint of sadness and melancholy to it, but another one of my favorites.
9. Mesmerized-One of the more sappier songs, but emotionally appealing.
10. Bridges-This upbeat performance is one of the last harder songs on the album.
11. Learn You Inside Out-The lyrics to this song are powerful, and anyone can take it and use it as they like. Great song!
12. One of Jason's rare solo efforts come alive in "Storm." A remake from "Diff's Lucky Day", this song is powerful, and finishes the album in awe.
"Who We Are" moves in a different direction for Lifehouse. The band is changing, and Jason Wade is becoming more spiritually connected to his music. Definitely worth every cent!
