"This CD is really awesome. Dogwood really does have a slightly different sound on all of their albums. This one reminds me a lot of NOFX, actually. It's good stuff. My favorite tracks are "Do Or Die" and "1983"."

"this cd is great, their best cd was 'more than conquerors', but this is one is also good. i dont know what people think when they write reviews like," this cd was dissapointing." 'do or die', 'a hope unseen' are the best songs on the cd. i gave it a 4, because it is more produced than their other cd's, but its still great. i recommend it, its not poppy, its good punk rock. people that dont even like punk, like these guys cause they're actually good, not like all the other bands out there. they have talent. get it."

Another Wonderful CD by an AWESOME Band

"Dogwood is an awesome band, and this is another great album that they made. Matt Aragon is a CD with a different sound from any of their other CDs, with a great message and an overall great sound.First of all, it still amazes me how all of the Dogwood's CDs are so different and unrepetitive from each other, while still retaining Dogwood's general sound that makes them great. I have heard Seismic, Building a Better Me, More Than Conquerors, Through Thick and Thin, and now Matt Aragon. All of those CDs have their own unique sound but they're all still Dogwood.Matt Aragon is definitely different. Don't buy this CD expecting to hear another "Building a Better Me." If you want another "Building a Better Me" or "More Than Conquerors" or any other CD, I suggest that you just listen to that CD, because Dogwood is not repetitive. They make something completely different each time.This CD is actually a lot softer and more melodic than their others. If you're looking for a harder CD, I suggest that you buy Seismic as well as this CD. So even though yes, it is less punk than their other CDs, at least in my opinion, this CD still amazes me. It is SOOO relaxing and for some reason, even though it still sounds like Dogwood, it is such a different sound but it is goooood, trust me. The whole CD just flows together in a great way. Even though it sounds less polished than Building, it doesn't matter on this CD, because it just sounds so great. All the songs have great lyrics, sounding like poetry with instruments added to it. If you just sit back and listen to this CD, you will find great messages in these lyrics.I could go on and on forever saying how great Matt Aragon is. That's because it was a really great CD. I didn't expect to like it either, because I heard that it didn't even compare to Building a Better Me and i really liked that CD. But I strongly recommend that you go against your doubts about this CD, and just buy it and listen to it anyway, because you will not be disappointed.The only reason I gave this CD 4 stars instead of 5 is because i'll admit that it's not the BEST CD I've ever heard. It is a bit short."
