OK, I've decided, they're both classics. This might be coming from a fanboy point of view, but with songs like Work In Progress, No One's Gonna Need You More, Everyone Left, Parachute, and In My Room all being amazing and the rest of the songs being great, it's hard to give it anything less. Plus, the lyrics seems to come with a story that I'm not sure was intended. It begins with everything being perfect and feeling as if you're on top of the world, but slowly everything detioriarates in life and you figure out you're all by yourself. But, then you realize you're not alone, and even if you were, you only need yourself to get by. And AJ Perdomo, the lead singer and lyricist, is able to make everyone relate to his story. And that, is what makes this album a classic.

I originally did not enjoy this. A week later, I would have given it a 4.5. But now, after a few months, I can't enjoy this album as much as I'd like to. This album is filled with good lyrics, and a lot of emotion, but it drags constantly, and isn't nearly as catchy as it needed to be.

Who the hell is the guy in the Soundoffs here who didn't "'get' Reach for the Sun until after a few listens"? How do you not get pop-punk, it isn't fucking avant-garde. That being said, I loved their debut/EP and I'll probably love this.

War Paint is the best pop punk -- or pop rock, depending on who you argue with - album that I have heard in a long time, maybe in two or even three years. The Dangerous Summer take what made their debut so strong and, well, more or less just crank it all up a notch for a collection of tracks that hardly ever fail. Tell The Wonder Years, Yellowcard, and Title Fight to move over in 2011: The Dangerous Summer are the kings of summer hooks, memories, girls, and self-improvement. Let their roots of nostalgia set in with War Paint for the future summers to come.

Two great albums in a row. They are currently the greatest thing that has come from the shallow genre of pop punk.

Those bridges... Those lyrics... They just hit so hard. Still has RFTS feel but doesnt have the same impact. But with lyrics like in "Parachute" and "Siren" what does it matter.

Raised my rating to a 4 after listening to it recently, but then remembered why I had it at 3.5 originally. Album doesn't have the staying power Reach for the Sun did for me

Currently the best pop-rock outfit around. While the general formula for their songwriting hasn't changed since Reach For The Sun, War Paint offers a tighter and more mature sound, which gives reason for a promising future.

Keeps getting better and better with repeated listens. Hard to pick a favorite song since there all fantastic but Work In Progress and No One's Gonna Need You More are just so good.

Another grower I think. Took me several listens to 'get' Reach for the Sun, love it now
