This album was my first experience with Swtichfoot, and I listened to it when I was about 9. I absolutely loved it. Now I am 15 and still am in love with their music. They have a great mix of rock, and other softer music. Lyrically, they are great. Songs like, "Meant to Live" show listeners more to this life, and our purpose, while another like, "Gone" has a more upbeat rythym, and gives a lesson on not wasting your life. Nothing inappropriate at all. Great for anyone over 8.
