"Speeding faster towards disaster." When most angst-filled frontmen spit out a line like that it just sounds ridiculously clichéd. But when Alien Ant Farm frontman Dryden Mitchell conjures it up for "1000 Days," the opening track of his band's second major label album, it's easy to believe he has an intimate connection with every syllable. Just as the Los Angeles quartet found itself in the right place at the right time with its enormously successful 2001 debut, ANThology, a tour bus accident nearly took the singer's life. The group attempts to put the tragedy behind it on truANT, but this is undeniably a more muscular, heavy-hearted affair than its predecessor, particularly in searing songs like "Sarah Wynn" and "These Days." Better still, the disc was produced by Stone Temple Pilots' Dean and Robert DeLeo, whose own experience with life's occasional pitfalls no doubt gave the band some much-needed direction. --Aidin Vaziri

Awesome album, Up in the Attic out in July.......2006-06-07
I originally didn't care too much for the debut album aside from Movies, Stranded and Attitudes, but Truant inspired me to go back and take another listen and I actually like the first album much better now that I've gone back. I've heard a sneak peak of some of the songs for the album coming out in July and I have a feeling its going to be excellent. Give these guys a chance, I'm sure you'll find something you like.
AAF are musical Gods.......2006-01-09
I am the come-to girl for all the people who want to listen to some good music, and I always know the good bands before they become famous... kind of what happened with this band. Still, after their "Smooth Criminal" hit on the radio, still many have forgotten who they are, or only know them by their one song.
This cd is good, as is ANThology. Hope is probabaly the best and my favorite song on this cd, although I see it does not get as good of a rating from other users. It is a very catchy and emotional song if you listen to it, so I recommend it. If you are thinking about also buying ANThology, listen to Attitude, which is my other favorite AAF song. You won't regret buying this cd.

Average Let Down.......2005-07-06
'We'll take a trip for..around the world', 'I'll be the bumblebee behind you, baby' and 'I'll think of something positive and negative too'? What was that? That made no sense, and if it does to anyone out there, good for you. Alien Ant Farm went to pop, and badly too. What happened to this album?!
Just Great!.......2005-02-27
1000 Days- 10/10 Great song. Nice and dark-ish, just how I like it!
Drifting part- 9/10- Gets a little old after awhile, but it's still good.
Quiet- 10/10 This one is a great great great song! The chorus (spelling?) is just plain AWESOME! I love it.
Glow- 9/10 Used to be one of my faves, then I played it too much. Oh well.
These Days- 10/10 Catchy. Ver very very catchy. Its good though!
Sarah Wynn- 8/10 A song talking about a girl doing heroin. Not the greatest, but, (unusually for AAF) the lyrics ACTUALLY MAKE SENSE!!!!
Never Meant- 7/10 It's okay . . . Some people compare it to Orange Appeal. Nowhere near as good as Orange Appeal. But hey, at least it makes more sense than Orange Appeal!
Goodbye- 8/10 Its good, but I usually skip it to go to something more, umm, "exciting".
Tia Lupe- 10/10 This is a GOOD song, nice hispanic flair. Gotta listen to it a few times to actually get it, though.
Rubber Mallet- 9/10 This one's pretty good. Cable cars and North and Valentine must be special to them (Remeber Happy Death Day?) Oh well, can't expect much sense to come from them. And yet people say that they're a "clean group". Sure.
S.S. Recognize- 10/10 This song is GREAT. It sounds like the longest one, even though Tia Lupe is. Don't really know what its about, but, its still good! But the lyrics weren't in the booklet!!! AAH! Fortunately I found them on the Internet, so I'm saved!
Hope- 7/10 It's okay. Too slow.
