Great album November 30, 2008
I love this CD! Very uplifting and easy to listen to. My dad even liked it!
Powerful and energetic November 28, 2008
I'm always lerking around Amazon searching for my next musical gem, Unbreakable is one of those such finds. The fact that you haven't heard anything off this album on your local Alternative or Pop radio station shows a flaw in the way programmers choose what they play today. But that's a rant for another forum. Unbreakable is an excellent album, one of those rare albums where I don't have to skip a single track. I would describe Fireflight on this album as Power Pop leaning toward Alternative. Some of their chops remind me of Trapt except Fireflight is more versatile and has an incredible female singer in Dawn Richardson. Her vocals fill this collection of songs full of powerful emotion. Any song on this album could have been selected for a single, they are powerful, energetic and well written, and in my opinion, that good. Fireflight has packaged into Unbreakable a collection of infectious highly likeable tunes that will effect you some how whether it makes you tap your toe, sway your body or just get lost in the depths of Richardson's reach into a place she brings those powerful vocals from. Give Unbreakable a listen I can't imagine you being disappointed.
I noticed in the tags that Fireflight is labeled "Christian Rock". I personally don't mind that. Maybe that's the reason this album isn't getting it's just attention. For good or bad, depending on how you look at it, or what you want out of it, the lyrics on Unbreakable are not obvious to the fact the band is Christion Rock. I own albums by other "Christian Rock" bands such as Casting Crowns and some lyrics are obviously trying to convey a Christian or Bible based message. I feel Unbreakable has been skillfully crafted in such a way that the lyrics could appeal to a mainstream audience without offending anyone while keeping with a positive message.
A record that is unbreakable! November 17, 2008
This album is definitely their best! I wasn't a huge fan before but I definitely am now with this album. With healing of harms you can tell it's a christian album when there was like god said in every song...in this album it's more subtle and everyone other than christians can enjoy...the lyrics are uplifting...this is one of very few albums that I love like every song...
Songs to note:-
'Unbreakable' is a song where it makes you feel like you can go out there and do anythin' that you put your mind to..
'Brand new day' is one that I have as my alarm in the mornin'. It's definitely one to listen to start off your day and 'pushes' you out of bed when you don't feel like it..
'Stand Up' and 'Go Ahead' can you tell from the titles what they're tryin to say?
'Wrapped in your Arms'- the ballad of the lot...it starts of slow and then just swells towards the end..definitely one of my favorites of this album
'The hunger' is my least fav.- I don't like the melody too much, not as catchy as the rest..but it came out as a single though...so if you like this one you'd definitely love this album.
I've been listenin' to this album like daily since its release and haven't stopped since...
Quite an amazing CD! Excellent rock music from a band I haven't known long October 30, 2008
As stated above, I really did not know much about this band other than the song "Unbreakable". I bought the CD because I figured if that song was good, the rest of the CD would be too.
And thankfully, I was right!
This CD is amazing! Every single one of these songs have really great rock sounds to them and most every song sounds different from the rest. Each of these songs can truly stand alone, and that's a good thing! To any rocker out there, you will love this band. Also, any Christian rockers (or Christian music-lovers in general) will go nuts about this CD. My favorites are "Unbreakable", "Stand Up", "The Hunger", "Forever", and "Brand New Day". You WILL love this CD if you buy it. So go ahead, buy it! haha
They'll return but I'll be stronger October 3, 2008
It's always going to be hard for a band to top a debut as loved as Fireflight's The Healing of Harms, yet that's exactly the task Fireflight had to tackle with Unbreakable. So how did they fair? Far better than could have been expected is how.
Way #1 to top your debut: Create buzz.
There wasn't a lot mind you, but they set up a website (a pretty cool one at that), iamunbreakable.com. This gained the appropriate attention amongst fans and word of mouth.
Way #2: Create better--more crushing--music.
My God the breakdowns! If you have a system in your car, Unbreakable is definitely a CD you'll wanna test out for yourself. The Hunger, Stand Up, and So Help Me God are all tunes that pushed the envelope that Fireflight had successfully created originally into a new, better, direction.
Way #3: Make sure the lyrics mature, yet stay relevent.
Well, actually, title explains it all.
Those are the three main 'new' qualities brought to the table this time around. Holding steady at amazing is Dawn's excellent, demanding, vocals. The two halfway ballads, Forever and Wrapped In Your Arms introduce the famed rock ballads into Fireflight's catalog. Oddly enough, those are probably my two favorites too.
So! In my humble opinion, Fireflight destroys their debut with Unbreakable. It's almost like The Healing of Harms was laying the groundwork for Unbreakable to come in and prove beyond a shadow of a doubt, that yes, Fireflight is for real. Highly recommended.
