2005, Fat Wreck
A damn good record. Against Me!'s latest release for Fat Wreck, Searching for a Former Clarity, Wreck covers many topics from "Unprotected Sex With Multiple Partners" to "Violence" to "Joy," to name a few. Searching for a Former Clarity opens with a slow-to-start song that picks up within a minute, then follows with "Miami" -- a churning song with a little bit of horn flare. Singer/guitarist Tom Gabel gets a little acoustic during the passionate song "Joy," but immediately changes tones in the next track. With the variations in styles of songs throughout the album, is Against Me! searching for a former clarity? It's as if this album, from start to beginning, showcases the band ruffling through ideas and sounds trying to get the best ones. With political and intimate lyrics and edgy punk rock music, Searching for a Former Clarity is sure to satisfy anyone with a passion for good, hard music.

Alex YoungThis is Against Me's best album to date. The first time I listened to it I was a bit iffy. It sounded a little more poppy then previous efforts. Upon the second or third listen though I was hooked. It is now one of my favorite albums of all time. All the previous Against Me sounds remain intact. The folksy punk sound with even a bit of countryish twang thrown in on some songs. I'm looking forward to their upcoming major label debut. I never thought they would be a major label band but if they keep pumping out excellent music then I'll have no reason to care.
