Huh. You must've done some extensive searching to find that, It wasn't even on the first page when i searched for it.
I think it sounds great.

If I remember correctly I first found it by typing in "Red Death of Me Innocence and Instinct." So yeah, it wasn't an easy find. I am loving "Shadows" though over all of them.

Shadows is pretty decent, though I haven't really heard of it being released as a single anywhere any time soon, so I don't exactly understand why it was out on AOL Radio...
I've yet to find myself an mp3 of either this or Never Be The Same, (besides buying it off iTunes). And I usually listen to songs just on my iPod, so I really can't judge which one I'll like more. However Fight Inside died down really quick for me, It just sounded too bland.

More than likely as a promotional thing. There's a lot of excitement about that song just because Ben Burnley helped write it. At this point, Rock radio is dying for some new Breaking Benjamin and to have an band that is quickly becoming a favorite on radio perform one of Ben's songs is a big deal.

OH yes, I remember reading that Ben would be contributing to a song, but I didn't think it was that one. I love Red's overall sound, they're the next big "Skillet", except these guys seem to have the potential to do even better than Skillet.

Skillet and BB are my favorite bands, and seeing Red go in this direction is great news for me. They definitely have tons of potential. If you put their debut against Skillet's than there's really no comparison, Red's easily got them beat. But Skillet sounded COMPLETELY different back then so we'll see what the future holds. In seven albums there's no telling what they'll sound like lol. As of now, I don't think this album is gonna be quite up to par with "Comatose" or "Phobia" but it still sounds fantastic. Definitely an early pick for best album of 09.

I'd have to agree, Comatose is my favorite overall Christian album..ever. But when you pair Red's debut against, say, Alien Youth, Red beats them by a long shot. But you're right, Skillet has definitely changed and gone way more Mainstream since then. As for Phobia...I like Breaking Benjamin, but the only 2 songs that I really got into were "Until The End" and "The Diary of Jane". The rest seemed a little bland for me. I'd say Red's debut tied with Phobia for me, considering I only "really" got into "Already Over" and "Breathe Into Me".
Though both albums are good.
I wanna see how this album stacks up against BB's new album coming out soon...and eventually Skillet's.

Managed to get my hands on an mp3 of all 4 of the new songs. (Though Death of Me and Shadows are rips).
After a ton of listens, I'm definitely thinking Shadows is going to be a huge hit if it's ever released as a single. It's definitely my favorite so far.

EDIT: Nevermind, I just found it on youtube. And you're right it sounds like it was ripped straight from AOL Radio.
Wow I listened to it once and now it's been taken down already. That is strange.

Apparently this went for adds, since it's already being played by 39 stations. I guess their viral campaign is really doing well for them, this has huge potential.

Scratch that last statement, this doesn't go for adds until January 12th. However 40 stations are already spinning it, this could be huge for them. I'll bet when we visit itunes on Tuesday we might have a new Red song available.

Tunelab is streaming the album now (on a pretty sweet red-colored player no less), and it's killing me.
I'm getting the album in five days and I'm trying to not listen til then lol, and the wait will be the death of me.

I've already heard the standard version of the album and so far nothing's really jumping out at me like "Breathe Into Me" and "Lost" did on End Of Silence. There are tracks I like, but other than "Ordinary World", nothing really screams awesome song to me just yet, and that one doesn't count cause it's a cover. "Shadows" is pretty nice too. I guess maybe I set my expectations too high, but I'm holding out until I hear the Deluxe version with the added tracks so I get the full Red experience.

After one listen, I think it's a very good overall album, but nothing grabs my attention immediately like "Breathe Into Me" or "Already Over" did the first time I heard them.

Let's see, I've heard 30 second samples of all 14 tracks. Fight Inside, Never Be the Same, Death of Me, and Shadows in full.
Oh, and Duran Duran's version of Ordinary World. Haha I'm getting impatient.
