common sense media says
Smart punk-tinged rock & roll for teens.

What parents need to know
Parents need to know that the lyrics are pretty darn clean, especially for punk-tinged rock & roll. There are a couple of references to acts of violence and getting high, and the slightest bit of sexual innuendo.
Violence:
Just a little violent imagery with a non-violence message.
Sex:
Just the slightest bit of innuendo here and there.
Language:
Pretty darn clean.
Consumerism:
Not applicable.
Drinking, drugs, & smoking:
A couple of references to getting high, coming down, etc.

Interesting and nothing held back
At first listening, some of the songs made me a bit apprehensive, especially after seeing Yellowcard in concert (which seemed to be an hour+ rant about politics), but after spending some quality driving time with Lights & Sounds in the stereo, I came to really appreciate the musicality and talents of the group. They are certainly not afraid to voice their opinions about current events, as seen in songs such as "Two Weeks From Twenty". I would recommend the CD to teens who understand the events and issues the band is commenting on--otherwise, the lyrics don't really make a lot of sense. I've spent quite a while trying to explain the messages behind the lyrics to my 15-year-old sister. Overall, very musically entertaining and gets their message across. Their best yet.
