Oh the praise I could shower onto this record: amazing, original, underrated. Seriously Valencia is one of my favorite bands and it upsets me dearly that they are broken up. This is their first record. A mix of pop-punk and pop-rock filled with sing-along chorus's, catchy as shit guitar riffs, and actually unique song structures(for the genre). Their newer albums went for a more refined and simplified pop rock style, and one could say a more mature sound, but I can't help but love their sound on this album. This album contains some of my favorite songs ever. Best Tracks: "The Closest I Am To Living Life On The Edge" "The Space Between" "Will We Ever Know How?" "Away We Go"
