...towering the landscapes and scared of smaller rodents." so goes a quote from the poetic booklet for 'carbon copy silver lining' if you attend any FTM shows, you will, almost without a doubt, realize that they ARE rock and roll giants. this album is simply stunning, but has to be taken in as a whole. sudderth's metaphorical and ideoligical lyrics squealing and ripping over campbell's brillaint and creative guitar-work make this album simply beautiful, a rarity in the world of so-called "metal". from the thrashing "a.o.d.t.r.p" to the gentle "my mentor" we see the many dimensions of an artistic and intelligent band. fans of all genres should certainly buy this album today.

5.0 out of 5 stars A MUST HAVE, November 5, 2004

This is one of the best CD's you can get from an unsigned band. Why they are still unsigned is still a mystery. The lyrics are beautiful and the vocal's are mesmerizing. It truly is a diamond in the rough.
