One of the best melodic hardcore albums ever made

"From the opening of "The Cannons and Tanks" anyone can tell that this CD rocks. It's chock full of poignant lyrics that actually leave you thinking, and beautiful, complex music that even the band can't remember how to play!
Without a doubt, this is one of my top 5 favorite CDs. Fans of Hot Water Music, Thrice, Strike Anywhere, and Piebald will love this."
Underrated

"Small Brown Bike is definitely one of the more underrated bands in this oversaturated genre. Call it screamo or whatever the new name is for these things, but unlike most of the others, they don't suck. This record has a really consistent feel, you can tell that it's meant to be heard as a full album and not individual tracks. I think its coherence is a rare and admirable trait. Then again, I've been told that I'm too attached to the album format."
