The Fray

A few weeks ago, one of my favorite bands, The Fray, released their second and self-titled album. The record features it's first single off of the record, "You Found Me" (which I love) as well as great mix of mellow yet strong songs.

At first, I must say, the album was a little hard to get used to. In fact, I thought I had wasted my money on the album itself because most of the songs are at least 4 minutes long (about two or three go over 5 minutes). My favorite songs are "Syndicate", which is the opening, "Absolute", "Never Say Never", "Where The Story Ends" and the one I love most, "Say When". Songs that I tend to skip over are "Ungodly Hour", which seems to just be too repetitive and boring as well as "Happiness" (most likely since it's the last song and one of the longest). 

In the end, I highly recommend the album if you are a fan of The Fray's debut record, "How To Save A Life". Make sure to also check out dates for their summer tour in which the opening act is another artist my friends and I like, Jack's Mannequin.
