2009 album from the Denver-based quartet, the follow-up to their enormously successful How To Save A Life. The Fray, who exploded into worldwide success with that album, have captured the skilled songwriting that broke them and, with the help of acclaimed producers Mike Flynn and Aaron Johnson, created a set of songs sure to make them household names. The band continues their licensing success story by collaborating with ABC's hit show, Lost in a series of music video promos featuring the album's first single, 'You Found Me' for the newest season of the show. The spots also ran during the 2008 American Music Awards, where the band was a featured performer. Over the weekend of the release and performance, the Lost video had over one million views. 10 tracks.
Love this group
I really enjoy listening to this group. They are one of the best out there.
The Fray
CD arrived in great condition and on time. No complaints here...and the price was right.
Still My Favorite Group
It's been a been a few years since The Fray released "How to Save a Life," which was brilliant. But they managed to follow it up with poignant songs like "You Found Me" and "Syndicate." The songs tell a story, which I think is lacking in most music. It's not pop music, in the traditional sense even though they have gained much popularity from their first album. The music itself has a classically beautiful tone combining piano with guitar. A few of the songs are forgettable, but not inherently bad music. If you're a fan of The Fray, this is a no brainer. If you're interested in music with substance this band delivers.
CD Purchase
I received the product a little later than expected, but I received it in perfect condition and I am very happy with my purchase.
Sophmore Curse?
The Fray tripped over that second album hurdle. "How to Save a Life" is good to great, this is weak and boring. "You Found Me" has gotten a great deal of airplay and I always found it unimaginative and repetitive. Unfortunately, it is the best track on the album. I only paid $7.98 total (Black Friday lightning deal), so I was only ripped off by The Fray.
