Music Review: Relient K - Five Score Seven Years Ago - Page 3

“Up And Up” is a song that is better and more positive. Thiessen realized that he writes a lot of negative songs. So every record he tries to sit back and think - is he just writing songs that are going to make people feel better about themselves or is he writing songs for just himself? So, this one is trying to make you feel better about yourself.

“Deathbed” is a story about a man who is 74 and on his deathbed. He is looking back on his life. It has 115 tracks. John Foreman, from Switchfoot, sang one part for this song.

Five Score And Seven Years Ago gets a 4 out of 5 stars. I hope they continue to mature. Their group is like wine the more it ages the better it is. A special thanks to Relient K and everyone who puts their time into this record. It turned out great.

The band will preform on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno on April 12th. For more information and tour dates, please visit: thier website and thier myspace profile page.

    Hey... No offense, but it's really hard to take you seriously when you don't even spell check, you know? FYI, "To better my skills, and one day become a published author, and/or a reporter." is not a sentence.
