pop punk genius! - By: Kirstie, 28 Aug 2008 
A fantastic album for alll those emo/scene kids out there! The catchy melodies & well-written lyrics combine with thrash guitar & screeching teen American voices to create the perfect emotional album. My favourite tracks are Adalia & Pandora. Perfect for fans of 30STM, Paramore & The Used. Big thumbs up!
5 Stars??? - By: R. A. Shah, 29 Apr 2008 
Hm. I do think other reivewers here are vastly overrating these guys. Good band. Certainly a confident debut album -seem to have a bit more than alot of their emo/hardcore peers. But 'masterpiece'?? Not reallly.
Brilliance! - By: H. Shadforth, 28 Mar 2008 
I bought this CD a few months ago, as I'd heard the brilliant One Last Kiss & was impressed by the catchy guitar riffs & the drummers technicality.
I never reallly listened to it & forget for a few months that I had it in my collection, so I got it out & listened to it, & it's absolutely spot on.
They have some amazing song ideas, some amazing lyrics, & the records production is spotless. I could honestly listen to this album on repeat for days.
Highlights for me are:
Here I Stand
The new version of One Last Kiss
Stars
House of Cards
and Adalia
Check it out, you won't be disappointed.
Impressive new band! - By: Mr. Jr Thomas, 31 Oct 2007 When I first heard Madina Lake on Kerrang! with the demo song of "One Last Kiss", I thought it was going to be some busted sort of band. But then they released the singles "House of Cards" & "Here I Stand", then i saw they weren't some old popy band. After hearing these three songs i bought this album & I got blown away. Not only these three singles were good songs, but other songs like "In another Life", "Now Or Never", "Stars" & "Me vs The World" were as good as them. You can there is experimenting at these album, by the end of "Now Or Never", "Morning Sadness" & "True Love" there are some symphonic sound effects.
The only bad thing i could say about this album is at the middle of the album they slow down the pace of the album with 3 slow songs after each other.
I would idvice this album for fans of the new emo music. These people have talent & I'm looking forward to their next album!
From Them, Through Us, To You - By: LetsGetFamous, 25 Oct 2007 I remember first hearing these guys. A friend of mine sent me the One last kiss demo & no one had ever heard of them! It's amazing the popularity these guys have gained in the past year with some awesome singles 'House of cards', 'Here i stand' & of course 'one last kiss' which is due to be released next month. This album is possibly my favorite with some of my favorite songs being 'Stars' & 'Pandora'. I respect the boys & how they give such thought to the UK. Their UK tour was amazing & i look forward to them returning for kerrang! tour 2008.
