4.0 out of 5 stars A remixed, remastered, repackaged version of their first album, January 15, 2006

By	Brian Reaves (Anniston, AL USA) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

A year ago, Thousand Foot Krutch released Phenomenon, and the world found them. They were nominated for a Dove Award for "Best Recorded Album of the Year", received a Vibe award for "Hard Music Album of the Year", and had tons of radio airplay. The disc sold over 100,000 copies and was supported by extensive touring.

What everyone didn't know, however, was that this was their second CD. Now they have re-released their first CD, Set It Off, adding six new tracks. Recorded five years ago and independently released, the songs really don't sound dated at all. If you're a fan of the "rapcore" style made popular by groups like POD and Pillar, you'll find a lot to like here.

"Everyone Like Me" starts the disc off and it's a brand new song. This one really does sound like it could have come from Phenomenon. I loved this one and it started the CD off perfectly.

"Unbelievable" is another great song. The chorus is really catchy and like every other song on this collection, it rocks! You've probably heard this one before on the radio.

The last five songs on the disc come from their 1998 indie release EP "That's What People Do". All of them are good, but it's easy to see the band was really just hitting their stride about this time.

At 18 songs you really can't go wrong with this disc. I've never heard the original CD so I can't speak for the improvement in quality thanks to the remastering, but this one sounds as good as Phenomenon. They definitely rap a lot more here than they did on their sophomore release, but that's not bad. While I like the direction they went in after this one, you'll need to add this one to your collection. If you're looking for another great Christian rock CD, grab Set It Off!

5.0 out of 5 stars A Reissue Worth The Money., November 3, 2005

By	Dennis Leonard - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is probobally TFK's best work and really shows how much they've changed, the rap aspect of their music was pretty much completley deleted in phenomenon, in this album it shows Trevors silver tounged skills and ha ability to write good meaningful lyrics. The highlight of this album when i first baught it (the origional release) "When In Doubt" was my favorite song because it had a certain punk rock feel to it along with "Come Along" but after the re-release the best song on thsi album has become "Moments Of The Day" it's one of the first songs they recorded, and probobally the best of their career (coming in second to "Last Words") I would definatley reccomend this album if you liked Pillar's First album.

4.0 out of 5 stars ummm... this is pretty nice!!, September 20, 2005

By	Rob_tattoo (who cares) - See all my reviews

This was the last of the 3 TFK albums I bought, and I was surprised to discover that this is their best, and also most versatile. They sound like everyone from Linkin Park(only much better) to Sublime(again only better) to their new sound found on The Art of Breaking album. Trevor is a blessed and gifted musician, he is good at whatever style he decides to use.Unbelievable is the best song on the album, previously done by EMF in the mid '90s. The first song is good, sounds more like their new sound. The 4th song is a must listen too as well. I strongly recommend this album.
