Album Review

There isn't much difference between Sticks and Stones and New Found Glory's prior, self-titled MCA effort. It's highly accomplished, energetic punk-pop, the harmonies radiating youthful cheer, Jordan Pundik's lead vocals adding a tinge of youthful defiance and vulnerability. It's much more upbeat, for instance, than the opening lines of the opening cut, "Understatement," might portend: "I'm sick of smiling, and so is my jaw." Could it be that they're tiring of their usual upbeat demeanor and slyly slipping in a subversive message there? Not likely — most of these are still upbeat if ambivalent songs about tense relationship growing pains and breakups, though sometimes colored with the wider territory of finding inner strength, dealing with loss, and coming out of rough experiences for the better. It's more engaging than exciting, and though it sounds pretty radio-ready in the better sense of that term, it does start to blur together over a full-length hearing.

Customer Reviews

Sticks and Stones may break your bones, but it sure is worth it

Out of all the bands out there, of all the amazing cd's, why this one? Why can I never get this one out of my head? This is easily my favorite cd of all time. Not every single song is extremely memorable. Not every guitar riff or solo is mind-blowing, and many would easily consider the vocals to be sub-par by most standards. But this cd is nothing short of amazing. The raw energy that is thrown out of this album, the feeling of utter giddiness that you get when you listen to songs like "Understatement," or "Forget my Name," not to mention the singles, is nothing short of powerful. They don't have to be your favorite band. (They aren't even mine.) This doesn't have to be your favorite CD. It doesn't even have to be in your top ten. It just has to do it's job, and give you a fun, energetic experience. I can promise you, you won't regret it.

NFG At Their Best

My Friends Over You is the best NFG song hands down. Head On Collision, It's Been a Summer, Understatement, and Something I Call Personality help to make this NFG's best album.

O.o

This was the first NFG Album I got. I remember seeing the video for 'My Friends Over You' on MTV. So I went to a used CD store and bought the album. I loved it. Some highlights of the album are: Understatement My Friends Over You Sonny Head on Collision Make sure you buy this CD. The rest is pretty good, too.
