So I decided that I would talk about probably my favourite band in the past 5 years. This band as you can probably tell by the album cover is Switchfoot. There are many reasons why these guys have been able to be a major influence in not only my life but the lives of many other youth and young adults lives.When Switchfoot first came into the music scene they weren't to big, but they got pretty big in the Christian industry with the album A New Way To Be Human. When they came out with their next album The Beautiful Letdown, this is where they made it huge. One big reason why people now know who Switchfoot is, is because they were the headline band in the movie, A Walk To Remember. After this movie Switchfoot just became just a big name in a the music industry.
The reason why I talk about Switchfoot is not because they are big, but because they are having such a huge influence on the world and not ashamed to tell anyone where they came from and what they are all about.
The new CD and pretty much all of their CD's are a good pick up. This new one is especially good because they took time this go around to make a really decent album. It is truly a great album. At first it may not be the best album, but it has to grow on you. You have to listen to it a few times before it becomes really good.
Switchfoot is really doing something good for this youth culture in today's day and age. They have great lyrics and provide an alternative, but same sounding music to a lot of the mainstream music around today. Truly great guys and great music.
