I BELIEVE I like this CD (sorry for the bad pun. I couldn't resist. :D)| Posted February 02, 2008
my sister showed this CD to me cuz she liked it, but I am the one who ended up buying it. :D all of the songs on this CD are great. even the slower songs I like almost as good as the faster ones! the classics are "more than a revolution", "myspace" and "the unicorn revolt". not QUITE as good as their first CD, I still love it to pieces. (just a figure of speech, of course. I couldn't listen to it if it was in pieces! lol! :D)

Eleventyseven is just like every other punk band except that they are the noobs. But noobs with a purpose. Eleventyseven's debut album is designed for the relxation time that people get after they have done some hard work. A great album.

With a sound much like Stellar Kart, Eleventyseven's debut album is very refreshing, in my opinion. Songs like 'Myspace' and 'Teenage Heartbreak' can put a smile on your face but if you listen to the album all the way through, you might get a headache. While the album is very good, the songs sound very similar and the vocals can get on your nerve. 'Here With Me' and 'Reach That Far' are very soft and sweet. If you like Stellar Kart, Jonas Brothers, and Mxpx, you'll definitely like this album.

This is one of the few cds in my collection that I really enjoy. Their energy and vocals...gotta love it!
It starts out with "More than a Revolution" which is basically saying that the world needs a "big explosion" to wake them up because they are leaning to heavily on all their false solutions. This is the first song I heard by this band and I instantly fell in love with it.
This band talks sense when it comes to romance. "I told myself my heart would just get in the way. It's never good to let emotions have their say." and "teenage heartbreak...doesn't really last that long. Broken hearts heal then the pain is gone." and "God wants more for the life you lead and everything you share. Guys and girls may break your heart but he'll always be there" are just some lines that let us know that we are still teenagers with raging hormones(at least I am) and sometimes we just gotta let it go and God will take care of us. He's got our lives all figured out. "The Unicorn Revolt" is more of a break-up song, but it's not a harsh one. It's not one of those "I hate you! You ruined my life" kinda deals...it's more saying "I feel God calling us to different paths in life" But they are definitly not condemning romance as shown by their two really cute love songs. "Nostalgatopia" and "Anti-Adeiu" My favorite out of the two is definitly "Anti-Adieu" So cute!
In their song "Myspace" they speak some truth. That has been followed up by Brad Paisleys "Online". Both guys are saying that often the internet is used as a cover-up for who you really are. They are making fun of this abuse.
In "Odds and Even so's" they address the Christians living in a world of pain and depression. They tell the story of a girl who's alone and is planning to take her own life. They are urging Christians to take a stand and befriend these people. In the song they ask this tough question "what good is God doing you if He is only faith?" If he just sits in a box in the corner of your closet whats the point of calling Him friend. Most of us don't shove those we call friends in a corner and leave them there.
The last song on this cd is the one that reaches my heart the most. "Reach that Far" is it's name. It is a plea for God's forgiveness after sinning. When we feel so dirty and unworthy that we find it hard to kneel before God. This song has encouraged me several times throughout my life.
Overall amazing cd. Often encouraging, entergetic, and thought provoking. These boys have got the brains when it comes to song writing.
And Matt Langston's vocals are so differently awesome!
Eleventyseven Debut| Posted September 23, 2007
I think Eleventyseven did a pretty good job on this one, although i could sense that they were still a little amateur on this one, but i guess that's expected for some guys who might still be in their teens. Also i can't say they brought out anything new to CCM. It was a good effort, but there's room for improvement.
Great stuff| Posted August 28, 2007
Eleventyseven is awesome. Just wish they would come closer to me so I could see them live. and the Land of Fake Believe is a great song.
pure awesomeness| Posted August 25, 2007
This cd is rocks my face off. I love how eleventseven brings a awesome sound to christian music. My favorite songs are more than a revolution and yesterdays glue. Those 2 songs really tell me something more about God. Pick this cd up or you are lost.
