Essentially, this is power pop with screaming. What It Is to Burn is over-the-top and hasn't aged well, sounding firmly rooted in the burgeoning early 2000's scream-sing scene.

For every "Perfection Through Silence" or "Grey Matter", there's a "Letters To You" or "Post Script". The definition of hit-or-miss.

Solid debut but since I have no nostalgia attached to it I get bored of it quickly... catchy but not very musically interesting. SHTS is superior in every way.rEDIT: Better than I remembered.

What It Is To Burn is one of those albums that tests just how important nostalgia is to its listener. If you had a deep connection with it when the album first came out, chances are you'll love it. If you liked it, but weren't exactly enthralled with it, chances are you'll think it has aged horribly. I happen to be in that latter camp. When I was 15 this was great. Now at 26 it's nothing more than slightly less annoying bro-rock. It's not without its moments, but you might want to stick with how you remember it sounding rather than taking the time to give it another spin with an older set of ears.

Pop punk and post-hardcore working together. Nothing here is really new, but it's just such a fun and upbeat album to listen to, with surprising depth in a couple of the songs (Project Mayhem for instance).

Somewhat underwhelming pop punk/post-hardcore. They have some good moments, but most of it is familiar and rarely anything special. Not a bad effort, however.
