May 13, 2012 - I favor listening to 'I talk to the Wind' and 'Epitaph' back-to-back. To me, they blend for a good trip. However, whenever I am sadly confused, I think of 'Epitaph's chorus, and it always makes the situation even depressing

Justin Firsch Says:
May 21, 2012 - Since its magnitude of awesomeness is immense, and the majority of people I mention it to dont even know who the band is, nevermind the album. These songs should be a regular spin on the regular radio stations, you shouldnt have to put in the CD or go youtube them to listen to them, They should be as common as hearing some crappy 90s band on the radio.
