Album Review

This young Ontario-based quartet works in a not terribly original but completely winning pop/punk vein, churning out power chords, hooky choruses, and sweet vocal harmonies at tempos that generally vary between medium-fast ("From Underneath," "Letters to the President") and rip-roaring ("California," "Recess"). They're on the Tooth & Nail label and little phrases like "It's from my Father's hand" and "She thinks life would be so simple if everyone would pray" keep cropping up, so there's good reason to believe that this is one of those crypto-Christian pop bands that can't help expressing its faith but is less interested in bringing you to Christ than in making sure you bop to the beat and take away a general feeling of uplift and encouragement. Of course, once in a while they'd like you to just bang your head, which explains the headlong, 50-second punk rush of "Recess." And they're not afraid to let you know that they sometimes stand by the window crying, either ("Take Me"), which one supposes is kind of endearing if you're into that whole Jade Tree/Promise Ring/Rainer Maria thing. Overall, not bad at all.

ahh man, such an amazing bandd.
like seriously, nothing better. Not to mention they're hard hard hard core Christians.
That's the best part!(: And they are so good live, it's kind of ridiculous. hahah(:
You will definitely not regret buying this amazingly talented band's debut album!(:

Greatness

The thing that I love about them is how they have great lyrics like some if the top Christian bands out there (Toby mac, Chris tomlin and mercyme) and that they can just make the audiance fall in love with it. If you have a chance to get their other albums you should! And the price for this is 7.99 for 14 songs!!! Get it and love it!!!

Hawk Nelson is beyond awesome!:)

If you don't have this Cd, get it! You won't regret it, I promise:)

I saw them live and let me tell you, they sound just as good! They are so amazing. Jason took my camera when they were singing California:) Oh, how I love HAWK NELSON<3
