- The Calling: Pure Genious
This band is my second favourite behind Lifehouse. The Calling seemingly came out of nowhere at the end of 2001 with their 1st CD released called 'Camino Palmero'. This is a album of refreshing genious. All songs are packed with messages for today's youth, of hope, love, friendship, honour and trust. The hit songs of this CD, 'Wherever You Will Go' and 'Could It be Any Harder' are probably the two best sounding songs musically and lyrically. This young band are well on their way to becoming famous. Move over Matchbox 20, this group of Californian young men have their heads screwed rightly and the songs are sung amazingly. The lyrics of each song are set out to mean something, its the interpretation of us listeners to figure it out.

- good, but forgettable.
I'm one of the many that ran out and bought this cd when "Wherever You Will Go" hit airwaves and Alex Band's pretty-boy good looks had thrown so many girls into a frenzy. This also seemed like a good back up to listen to when I was tired of Creed or Lifehouse cds. (Creed fans admit it - when you weren't in the right mood for Creed, you listened to Lifehouse instead, and you know it!)

Well, I was a bit disappointed by this disc. I was expecting a whole album of power-ballads similar to "Wherever You Will Go," and got a disc that, as a whole, just isn't as interesting as that hit single. Frankly, it's boring. Not that it's just dreadful or a waste of money; if you're looking for something mellow to relax to, this is the record for you. Because nothing on this album is going to get your attention too much. Should you buy this record? I'm not saying yes or no... but if you do buy it, buy it used, and save some money. Key Tracks: Wherever you will go, Adrienne, and Could It be Any Harder.

- Deep Vocals, Good Sound
I'm surprised this group hasn't gain as much momentum as they deserve. I got this CD because they're one of the groups in the Smallville CD, but found they have a collection of songs that have become my favorite "white noise".

- Fantastic
This album is one of a kind!!!!! It's got your heart felt slow songs and your cutting edge rock.

With the very catchy "Where ever you will go" this album never came out of my cd player.

Both "Adrienne" and "Stigmatized" like many other songs on this album is sung with such great passion. The Callings heart and sole have gone into this album and it really shows.

"Could it be any harder" leaves a tear in my eye every time I listen to it, with an impressive chorus of-
"Could it be any harder to say goodbye and without you,
Could it be any harder to watch you go, to face what's true. If I only had one more day"

Its enough to warm anyone heart.

A Truly inspirational album that's definitely worth adding to your cd collection.
