Professional Review:
The Best Yet is Switchfoot's first greatest hits compilation and it features the best songs from all their albums. Over the course of 10 years, Switchfoot has become one of the most successful and respected bands in rock music and they are is known for creating groundbreaking music that is compelling for both its sound and presence, and socially aware lyrics. With their breakthrough album The Beautiful Letdown, Switchfoot's music resonated with a broader audience and they saw two singles climb into the Top 10 at Pop Radio.

   Summary: The Best Yet is the best yet
Hey guys. Yours truly here. Just had the opportunity to check out the newest release from Switchfoot, "The Best Yet." I was really hoping that this CD would be a change from the last two. I was not sure what to expect at first, but now that I have seen and heard this new album, let's just say this is a MUST have. For the first time, the band is releasing a greatest hits album. It includes songs like Dare You to Move, Concrete Girl, On Fire, and many more of their songs you know and love. I cannot wait for this album to drop. It will drop in stores November 4th! GET READY! Keep on rockin!

   Summary: So far so good!!!
Switchfoot is an extremely talented, spiritually conscious rock band led by an extremely gifted songwriter in Jon Foreman. Their first 3 albums on a Christian label showed that the band had much promise and creativity. They simply blew away every other CCM band on the scene and were destined for mainstream success which they achieved with the breakthrough smash - 'The Beautiful Letdown' - an album which showcases a band at their peak. TBL essentially features about 8 bonified singles, with 2 of them ("Gone", "More Than Fine") missing from The Best Yet!

Unfortunately the band begins to decline a bit with their next release 'Nothing Is Sound' which is a fairly tired, somber effort. The 2 standout tracks are included on this release ("Lonely Nation", "Stars")

'Oh Gravity' was a rebound of sorts and 3 excellent tunes from that album make the cut - the energetic title track, the uplifting "Awakening" and the demonstrative "Dirty Second Hands"

The Best Yet doesn't only showcase some of the bands best hits but also showcases their musical diversity and features some poignant spiritual ballads. Other personal favorites featured here include the witty "Company Car", the grungy "Concrete Girl", the reflective "Only Hope", the heartfelt "Learning To Breathe" and the little heard "This Is Home" which is a real gem!

Overall, I can't really complain too much with the song selection. Every Switchfoot album has more than a handful of great songs so I would recommend purchasing all their releases.


Here is my ranking of the band's albums (they have yet to release a clunker!)

1) The Beautiful Letdown
2) New Way To Be Human
3) Oh Gravity
4) Nothing Is Sound
5) Learning to Breathe
6) The Legend of Chin


Enjoy!!!
