 Relient K has done better September 23, 2008
i would suggest buying the two newest cds and not buying this one at all because youll get better versions of basically the same songs
 Best Relient K EP By Far January 10, 2008
Relient K knows, or knew, how to put out extra content, the EP. The early EPs had songs from the full length albums, as well as some goodies, sometimes good, sometimes not so much. But the trend turns with Apathetic EP, all original content, nothing old.
The album starts off with two new studio songs, both are great, but are in a in-between style, not Five Score, but not "Mmhmm" either.
The next three songs are marvelous acoustic tracks. All of them are great in their own right. I might prefer the studio version to "Over Thinking" musically, but for the overall emotion to the song, this version works best.
"In Like a Lion (Always Winter)" is one of the greatest Relient K songs of all time. Although it's not a rock song, it's their best, I guess what you call balled. If you haven't heard the song, please do, you will be blown away. Why this song wasn't on the Music Inspired By The Chronicles Of Narnia album, I don't know. I think it was a MAJOR mistake by the people that produced the album. Because this song is better than that whole album, combined.
The last song is by Matt T's side band, Matt Theissen and the Earthquakes. The song is only OK, not anything to write home about. I also had a hard time getting the whole vibe of the song.
And for those of you who got the acoustic version of "Who I Am Hates Who I've Been" it's a good version, but I think they took it down too much, which is probably why it was eventually cut.
Overall, the best EP by far, great find for fans, and the album contains many great songs. Only time will tell if another EP of theirs is made, this site only mentions a Christmas album coming out, but I hope they do an EP for Five Score. The Relient K EP is always the best middle album in Christian music, and probably music period. You don't have to agree, but it's my opinion, and I'm sticking with it.
My Favorite EP EVER October 6, 2007
So, I usually don't like EP albums, but since I like Relient K, I decided to try it.
I love this CD! All the songs are awesome.
I won't go into detail about each one, but my favorites on this album are "In like a Lion" and "the Truth".
If I could give it 6 stars, I would!
Also, I agree that you should check out their christmas album, "Deck the Halls, Bruise your Hand".
They also have a new christmas album coming out near the end of october (2007).
I'm getting it, and I recommend you look into it.
Anyways, Great album. Keep on rocking!
for acoustic lovers May 12, 2007
hey if you like acousics, you'll love this one. three of my favorite rk songs are redone in acoustics...be my escape...which to bury, us or the hatchet...and over thinking. there's one more acoustic...in like a lion. i love the acoustic versions. it really showcases their lyrics and melodic voices. i can't get enough of rk.
 Very disappointed. April 28, 2007

I liked their first 2 albums, but the third-- Two lefts don't make a right, but three do-- was disappointing... disappointingly secular. I liked relient k originally because they were punk and christian. You can find punk non-christian in every garage in suburbia, and the fact that they caved into making their music more secular really disappointed me.
I got this album because I heard them collaborate with John Reuben on his cd The Boy vs. the Cynic, and the song rocked. So I gave them another chance... and it turns out that I shouldn't have wasted my money.
They're okay as a punk band. Their songs sound a lot the same, all the time, so don't get this cd (or any of theirs) looking for originality. But the thing is, they're not good enough of a punk band to make me want to listen to them when they're not Christian anymore. When they went secular, they really became just like every other wanna-be punk band, and I stopped listening to them. When I was a fan I almost felt betrayed by their selling out of their beliefs. Now, I'm just disappointed.
