12 Stones is back with a new CD. They have turned up their edginess a notch or two with this release. Not a group wanting to fall to the old sophomore jinx with this release, they got their creative heads together for this CD and wrote thought provoking lyrics on each of their songs. Starting off the CD with 'Speak Your Mind', encourage you to look deep inside yourself and find the words to cry out to God and to others and tell them how you are feeling instead of bottling it up. Speaking your mind is a good thing to do. 'The Last Song', speaks of relying too much on someone to just take away all their problems instead of trying to work them out themselves. Moving down the line to 'Stay', which is taken from the perspective of someone asking Christ a lot of questions if He will stay with him through this issue or that thing he/she has done in their life. This song is choked full of songs that are emotional in their lyrics with in your face rock. Several of the songs have a great catchy guitar bridge that just completes each song. By no means did the group wimp out on this sophomore release. While not up to par with their self titled release, this one is still a must by CD for this summer. Here is the complete track listing for this CD: 1. Speak Your Mind 2. The Last Song 3. Far Away - 1st single 4. Shadows - should be the next breakout single 5. Lifeless 6. Bitter 7. Photograph 8. 3 Leaf Loser 9. Stay 10. Waiting For Yesterday - should be the 3rd single 11. In ClosingRead full review

Great CD but didn't like this as much as their first one. But I've only listened to it a couple of times and I'm sure many of the songs will grow on me.
