A Little Faster- There For Tomorrow



With A Little Faster, There For Tomorrow tries to show you everything that they have. "The Remedy" and "A Little Faster" are similar to their older music, while "Just In Time" shows the softer side that their self-titled EP lacked. This full length CD brings new levels to the band. A Little Faster has the power to give There For Tomorrow more popularity and a bigger fan following.

Like any album though, A Little Faster has its share of downsides. "I Can’t Decide" is meant to be slow and heartfelt, but comes off a little repetitive. Another problem is "Deathbed’s" lyrics. The whole concept is a little strange and leaves the listener wondering what Maika Maile was thinking.

A Little Faster also has its upsides. Songs like "Just In Time" and "Burn the Night Away" give the CD slower songs which allow There For Tomorrow to show their ability to change the tempo. "Backbone’s" lyrics are relatable to anyone who has ever wished someone would come into their own. "Stories" has a good build and the lyrics are a nice compliment to it.

In conclusion, A Little Faster is a good first album from a band who I hope to hear much more from.
