Switchfoot followed up Christmas Day with their third mainstream release (sixth overall), Oh! Gravity. - a distinct stylistic departure from their previous projects. Noticeably edgier and glaringly more unbridled, Oh! Gravity twists and turns through twelve tracks that take the listener on a musical rollercoaster ride from the raucous title track to the ponderous "Yesterdays" to the Brit-pop "Burn Out Bright" and the softer and unpolished "Let Your Love Be Strong."

Faust, Midas, and Myself is the oddiest track I've ever heard. This is an Ok record all in all but I would segest getting New Way To Be Human.
Can you say AWESOME?| Posted April 21, 2008
Switchfoot has come a long way and this cd is one of their best. "Awakening" makes you feel that you want to sing along to it. "Oh! Gravity" gives more of Jon's song storytelling like "Awakening" with "Oh! Gravity/ Why can't we keep it together?/ Sons of my enemies/ Why can't we keep it together?"
My favorite song on the album is "Faust, Midas, and Myself", the two legends and the Truth. Switchfoot totals this album off with every song. You want to keep saying "How much better can this get?!?"
good job!| Posted February 22, 2008

Its amazing, maybe one of my favorites! i think it is amazing!

great album!| Posted April 09, 2008
I have to admit Switchfoot has never been that high of a band on my list, but Oh! Gravity definitely helped them become higher. This album has great lyrics and style throughout all the songs. My personal favorite songs are: "Faust, Midas, and Myself"; "Awakening"; "Burn Out Bright"; and "Let Your Love Be Strong"(honestly I wanted to keep on listing :P). There are only 3 songs on here I don't really like: "Dirty Second Hands", "Circles", and "Amateur Lovers". Otherwise I could listen to this album straight through with no problems. Definitely add this album to your collection, you won't regret it!

"Oh! Gravity" is one great Switchfoot record. The music is second to none and the lyrics are well thought out. My personal favorite on the album is the beautiful closer "Let Your Love Be Strong". Other great tracks are: the opener "Oh! Gravity", "American Dream", "Awakening", "Yesterday", and "Burn Out Bright". Switchfoot continues to grow in their music and their message, I strongly recommend this record.

Switchfoot is back with their new album. It's much more light-hearted and fun then their last album. There are a lot of good songs on this one and it sounds like a new direction for Switchfoot. This album cannot be missed.
"i like switchfoot"| Posted December 26, 2007
is the bumper sticker on our car. I did like the title track, "Oh! Gravity.," and the song "awakening". I'm sorry, I just haven't gotten used to the other songs on the album. Don't hate me. I still love listening to Jon's voice; and I love seeing all of your smiling faces. If I remember correctly, 'switchfoot' is a term used in surfing. That is so cool! God bless you guys! We don't just "like switchfoot"; we love em! :)
