This is Truly a Masterpiece and Best album ever! 10 stars.......2006-06-23

This CD is so amazing. It shows the soft and alot more of the heavier side of FFAF. Bend your arms to look like wings has such a awesome beat and is so meaningful. Every song on this CD kicks a** and is the best album ever
Great art work visually and Emotionally!
MASTERPIECE!
10 STARS*********

10432747365 times better than Hours.......2006-05-24

I thought this album was awesome. Hours sucked horribly. They sold out just like everyone else. Their "drunk" screamer is what made this band. Not some lame super emo cd. This is a screamo album so if you dont liek screaming dont listen to it. I thought the screams brought good contrast to this cd. In my opinion if you liked teh EP's then buy this. If you are one of these kids who hates any screaming and loves bands who sell out then check out Hours. So basically if u think ur cool because u got on the FFAF Hours bandwagon dont waste your time with this.

Lame is the only word to describe this.......2006-05-22

Now don't go discounting my opinion because I usually listen to harder music. I very much like emo LIKE this. Just not this CD in particular.

This is one of those typical run-of-the-mill emo releases (release, not "effort" it hardly seemed like they tried at all) that's not very catchy, interesting or even good for that matter. The only reason it gets 3 stars from me is for two ABSOLUTELY AMAZING tracks.

Bend Your Arms to Look Like Wings is definitely NOT standard of the rest of the CD. This song is actually good. Even the title suggests something meaningful. Aside from being catchy it has a melody and actually progresses through to the end. And what an end it is!! The outro is so beautiful. The interval at which the notes are played just strikes a chord inside of me, it makes me want to cry and scream at the top of my lungs.... at the same time.

Rookie of the Year. One of the greatest songs ever written. Period. It's a powerful, beautiful track about friendship and how you can care about someone so much. You can't beat that. You couldn't ask for a better song.

I obviously like this kind of music or otherwise I probably wouldn't like those two songs. Like I said, I like emo because I like good, well written, powerful music. Unfortunately that DOESN'T describe the rest of this CD. If you like lame, totally uninspired music like Taking Back Sunday, Brand New or A Thorn for Every Heart go ahead and get this you'll probably like it. But if you actually like good, well written music you'll download those two songs and go someplace else and not waste your time with the rest of this CD.

why the haters?.......2006-05-17

I actually prefer this album to Hours. I guess that puts me in the minority. I thought Casually had more of an edge to it than Hours, grimy if you will. Hours was a good album, but seemed more polished in a slicked up production sense. Some people prefer that as you can see from the reviews, but don't be deterred, Casually is an excellent album.

A very overrated album by an amazing band.......2006-03-17

I should of listened to Forest from ISU. I bought "Hours" and was so floored, I figured I would give "Casually..." a try. What a mistake. This album is so spotty it boggles the mind that this band made the work of art "Hours". This album should be called "Casually Overated & Deep in Mediocrity". This band is absolutely amazing, dont get we wrong, but this album was just a stepping stone to get noticed and produce better work. The effect of this album makes you want to listen to it less and less. "Hours" gets better and better every listen. I find myself waking up with songs from "Hours" stuck in my head. Everything about this album is a few notches below "Hours". From the substandard vocals, to the plain guitars, to the average drums. Now maybe I wouldnt be so critical of this album if I didnt hear Hours but I guess this pales in comparision so much, its laughable. If you want to buy this album, do it in support of a great band getting better and dont expect to get much more out of it than that.

GET IT.......2005-08-30

I think the title of this review says it all its amazing and you'd be stupid not to have it.

the best of british.......2005-02-01

Listening to bands such as Taking Back Sunday, Atreyu and other such quality US acts, i thought i might listen to FFAF , and quite frankly ,am i glad that i did. This 11 track release is simply the best UK album for many a moon. Not so highly touted as fellow Welsh rockers Lost Prophets, FFAF are streets ahead when it comes to class,originality,talent,musicianship and all other aspects that go to make up top notch rock acts in this genre. This follows on from the earlier album Seven Ways ....(which has a couple of tracks carried over onto this full-length album). The album moves effortlessly into the groove with opener Rookie Of The Year , and really bites into an evener higher gear with the truly magnificent Juneau( one of the albums real killer tracks).Other barnstorming tracks keep on coming (including the phenomenal Escape Artists Never Die---and this track/band certainly never will). Even the beautiful ballad Your Revolution Is A Joke is so magnificently performed/carried off and full of heartfelt emotion that as soon as the tracks have finished it leaves you with an irresistable urge/need to play them again.
As i am British, it is great that we now have a band that can actually stand comparision with the many superb US/Canadian bands in this field (and i cannot wait for their next tour/follow up record to this beauty.

The best thing to come out of England since The Beatles.......2005-01-01

When I first heard of this band, it was in their early stages forming on the highly influential indie record label Ferret Records (think A Static Lullaby, Killswitch Engage, FATA). They have only improved since. As one fan states on FFAF's UK website, "I love FFAF like i love toast." And the English do love their toast. FFAF comes at the listener full force with all the trappings of metal, emo, hardcore, punk, and even throws in the occasional acoustic melody. The lead singer, Matt Davies, exhibits a full range of vocal capability ranging from the metal like sing-screaming in "The Getaway Plan" (on their first U.S. ep, "Seven Ways to Scream Your Name") to achieving barbershop harmonies in "Your Revolution is a Joke." The rest of the band is technically perfect in their execution, and unlike most bands of their genre (if you must give them a genre), the chorus' are executed using riffs void of the usual powerchords, instead substituting complicated arpeggios at times when the listener least expects it. The added fact that the rest of the band sings as well only adds on to the enjoyment you can expect from listening to this band. I have never really known exactly why i derive pleasure from listening to music, but by listening to this album, the answer seems in closer reach than it has ever been. I would recommend this album to anybody who is ready to experience something different from the norm of popular indie culture and be transported to a land where music has no boundries except for the ones that are set. In short, FFAF is the best thing to come out of England since the Beatles.

Funeral for ALL MY FRIENDS!!.......2004-11-14

best screamo ever!!!!.......2004-03-15

This is the best cd i have ever listened to, they are the best screamo band ever. Every song on the cd is awesome. it has mainly heavier songs with amazing guitar leads, there are also a few slower songs. Bulet Theory , Escape Artists Never Die and Waking Up are the best songs on the cd.

A New Band, Good Decision.......2004-02-11

I admit when I heard about FFF that it sounded like some samey emo rock band. But I gave it a chance and found it to amazing! They are by far in the top 15 bands to come over from England. Get this cd, u won't be disappointed.

Amazing.......2004-01-01

From start to finish this album is a classic. When I got it I was in HMV and saw in on the shelves for £8.99 and I had previously heard 10:45 Amsterdam conversation which is a great song, so I bought the album. I have always been a big fan of this kind of music. FFAF make bands such as Finch, Poison the Well, Hoobastank look tallentless. Every song is great, which is normally hard to find in an album. The best are Bullet Theory and Escape artists never die. They are the best songs my ears have ever heard.
BUY IT!

F***ing awsome.......2003-11-20

All i can say is that this album rocks! , It has suck a good mixture of thrashy riffs and melodys. Ive been waiting a long time for a good emo-core cd to come out and this is it. This band deserves where they are now, Been listing to then since the days of "10:45 amsterdam convi". And i new this band would be big and now they are definantly making a name for themselves. I would really recommend this cd!

Amazing debut!.......2003-11-12

this is a great album,buy it,do i really need to say anymore?well ok then..
the first single,jeaneu,is a classic,great riffs,great vocals,great lyrics.the second single,she drove me to daytime tv,is just as good,in fact all the songs on this album are good.
theres never a moment in the album were you flick to the next track and its not very often you can say that about an album.id be very hard to inpress,esspecially when it comes to new bands,i kinda stick to what i know(korn,ill nino,bush,sinch)but this band make it onto that list.
