@ swft24: Why do you think the album stinks? Don't just say it does and not give a reason why. I think it shows their progression from a bunch of kids singing blatantly about Jesus to a group of open minded talented adults making their music hit the airwaves, while still sending out the message that they wanted to. My friend Dan was not a Christan most of his life, but I gave him this CD on my school trip on Spring Break, because he had nothing to listen to. Well on the last day at about 2 A.M. he came up to me in tears (NOTE: this is a guy who NEVER crys) and said, "I don't get it, but I want to get it." I guess out of context that would make no sense to most of you, but he wanted to learn about God and Jesus, and so on, and it was because of this album, had he listened to the S/T album he would have disregarded it and not cared. So in my opinion this is their best album, it shows progress, intelligence, energy, and still speaks for what they were trying to speak about from the beginning. Just my 2 cents on the album.
