When i first heard of Everyday Sunday, it was when their song "Just A Story" from their now-defunct indie release "Sleeper" was being way over-played on Christianrock.net, and I didn't really like the song because of that. Several months later, I hear "Mess With Your Mind", and think, "Wow! Who is this?". Needless to say, I was surprised to find it was Everyday Sunday! Because of that song, I went out and bought this CD. Now, I just can't get enough of it. High-quality music with fun lyrics and a great sound. These guys have a sound like no other band. Definitely recommended, especially for Jars Of Clay fans, because this band, like Jars of Clay, is trying to reach both pop and rock audiences. "Stand Up", the title track, is slower and less wild than most of the other songs on the disc, but it's still great. Whether it's the tongue-in-cheek lyrics of "Mess With Your Mind" ("I'll try not to mess with your mind / I'll try not to give you everything you ever wanted...") to the fun upbeat "rap" of "Wait" or the punkish "Just A Story", you'll love this CD. I'm impressed. For a new band, they're awesome!

The music rocks...the lyrics rock...and the guys are awesome! I went to college with Trey (the lead singer) and I can tell you that he is a stand-up guy with strong convictions. These guys are real...and thats what we need more of...

4.0 out of 5 stars Worthy of the Jars of Clay mantle, October 16, 2002

This disc reminds me A LOT of the first offering from Jars of Clay. Passionate vocals, above average music hooks (choruses) and lots of likeable rough edges with a bunch of room for growth. I was impressed, but not altogether blown away by this disc. The more I listen to it the more I appreciate the CD as a whole. Stand Up seems to be a sure fire aim for radio airplay, but it works well. Stand outs include: Stand Up and Story of a Kid. A good disc to purchase if you need to have a pre "Much Afraid" Jars musical moment.
