I saw these guys in Concert this november and they put up a great show. Get your back off the Wall2.
The ones I mentioned are more " Krunk" sounding DIE-4-YOU4.
Fever3. RadiatorThe rest of the songs are kinda "pop" sounding and not nearly as good as others.
This album is almost as good as the first album Business up front\Party in the Back. Some of my favorite tracks are 1.
Wake up the Dead5.
I just couldn't get into most of the songs. I loved FF5's first CD and bought this one without even listening to the new songs and I was dissapointed. It seemed a little more Dance and less Rock/Rap.Listen to previews before you buy because it sounds different than the last CD.
I love their version of Ghost Ride. Exactly what you would expect from FF5. Very nice CD. Its awesome.
Since then, It has taken me over a year to put it in my player and listen to any of it. I have discerned from this album and listening to their music that they are a band of Christians who like to focus primarily on having a clean and good time, an area in Christian music which has had a big void since Reliant K grew up.
God Bless ~Amy This is echoed by the following tracks "Get Your Back off the Wall" (which is about starting a fight with dancing), "Rip it Up" a song about a girl who can cut a rug like a razor, "Fever" (which is about how hot a woman is), "Party Foul" a song about a loser who has the nerve to ruin to party by hitting on the singers girl, "Wake the Dead", and "Radiator".
The opening track "Dance or Die" a dance song about dancing to save the world makes it extremely clear but that this record isn't serious about anything but dancing and partying. Still, even with the failure that is "The First Time", this record is still 5stars in terms of entertainment when you want to shut your brain off and just dance.
I didn't know who Family Force 5 was, I bought this album anyway, I had only heard their name mentioned. Prior to listening to this album, I had only heard "Love addict" (from Business Up Front Party In The Back (Diamond Edition), but I have listened to a lot more of their music now after hearing this album.
The only songs that have some semblance of seriousness are "How in the World" which is an ode to a really good relationship (unlike a previous reviewer, I don't think its about God, but I could be wrong)., "D-I-E for You" which my be the only song that could be said to be about God and Jesus other than "Radiator", "Share it With Me" is a hilarious song that recalls bands like BSB and NSYNC with hilarious lines like 'You've already broken my heart, I'd like to keep at least one piece, you can take all that you want, but you're gonna have to share it with me,' and "The First Time" a song that feels 100% out of place and is a total throwaway track that sounds like it would fit on a record by "Sum 41" or "Blink 182" or some bland boring band like that and is not a compliment to Family Force or this album; if they left this song off, the album would have been the absolute perfect disposable dance/rock record.
I heard a lot of good things about Family Force 5 and finally decided to take the plunge and order their newest album. I would recommend it. This album rocks. It lived up to my expectations of being a fun catchy set of songs.
