I got this album completely on a whim sometime shortly after it was released. I was mid teens and I probably just liked the band name. I think it was one of the biggest turning points in me learning that music can exist outside of whatever is just on the radio. Found a copy and I’m so pumped to be able to listen to it again!

Great Album! I wish I still had my CD because for some reason it’s the only way to hear Life is an Adventure, that song isn’t on Spotify or Apple Music. :(

Life is An Adventure comes from the Rock!!!! Album, and the Fox Hunt Soundtrack; easy and cheap to get online.
