Families Can Talk About

  • Families can talk about the meaning of some of the imagery and what it relates to. The second song "Stab My Back" presents the chance to discuss what that title means in terms of relationships. This is a band that looks and sounds cool enough to appeal to a wide range of teens, including those of pre-dating age. If parents can get their child to listen with them, it could present an opportunity to talk about the upcoming dating years.

    Geat album

    I love this album. I listen to it over and over. Move Along is my favorite song, I started playing guitar because I heard a boy play it in a school talent show.

    Great Music!

    One of the tracks is featured in Burnout Revenge, an E10+ rated video game, and that song is pretty great. Lyrics aren't really an issue.

    I rate this title on for age 11 and give it 3.0
    My concerns are:
    • Negative message

    More of the same

    "Move Along" is a pretty typical boy band album. Nothing special, but not too much to worry about lyrically. There are some depressing songs. Chances are you'll listen to this album for a month and forget about it.

    I Like It, I Luv... Cake...

    This album is pretty good, I don't mind most of the songs, but my definite ALL TIME FAVES are Dirty Little Secrets and Move Along!
