After the sucess of "one thing" many finger eleven fans (myself included) were worried that this would change the band, making them want to become more mainstream. Unfortunatly this is the case with Them Vs You Vs Us. I have never been so saddened by an album until now. Finger Eleven had a great raw, dark sound that was like no other. With this album they've become a "pop" band, which means that they turned their back on their true fans, and that they have turned their back on everything they once were. Finger Eleven was never about catchy/dancing songs, but Them Vs You Vs Us changes this drastically. Gone are the days of Quicksand, suffocate, and absent elements. Now enters "Paralyzer" and "So-So Suicide" which are more like songs that would be played at dance clubs. Sure these songs will probably lead to more popularity with younger crowds (like 12 to 16 yr old girls) but what about your real fans? the fans that made you Finger Eleven? apparently we just aren't important to them...and that's what gets to me. I write this as a former finger eleven fan. This album is the standard of "selling out" and its a real shame. This band was something special, something different, and now their like the rest. There is NO WAY any TRUE finger eleven fan can listen to this album and not be upset. Sorry Rock Music, but you've lost another good oneRead full review
I heard "Paralyzer" on the radio a while back, and I decided a new Finger 11 CD would be awesome. I was a bit disappointed that it was the best track on the entire album, and that the entire cd was more mainstream than previous Finger 11 albums. I wouldn't go as far as saying that they sold out, but it isn't the sound you'd expect when you think of F11. It just seems like every other post-grunge alternative rock album out there. I only listened to the whole cd a couple of times since I got it, and I've already filed it away in my tower, not likely to be found again for another decade.
It plays like new, Great scratch free CD. I love all of the songs. It plays perfect without any skipping. It sounds great!! I am very glad that I bought such a good item. I like that it was in the original case with all of the original papers.
Finger Eleven's 2007 release shows progression, while maintaining the touch of grit they've always conveyed. Nothing quite like them before, with their sometimes odd twists and turns, and more likeable than ever, they offer a taste of a little of everything on this album, showing ferocity in their creativity as well as their now trademark sort-of-light sounding side, again, with that black undercurrent of the razor's edge that makes their music so unpredictable and just plain good to the ears.
Awesome buy
