Initial pressings Of WHAT TO DO WHEN YOUR DEAD include(d) Limited Edition bonus DVD.
Among emo fans, it's all about which band can best touch the heart, engage the head, and rock the body in equal measure. Armor for Sleep has been one of the most successful on all three counts, regularly performing to gaggles of sweaty kids who sing along with every word. Of course, with lines like "Give me your hand; I'll shake it...and smile until my face falls off my head," this is no mean feat. Though, on the surface, the group's radio-friendly take on the "smart-punk" genre may appear to have something in common with pop-punk jesters Blink 182, Armor for Sleep's lyrics repeatedly explore themes of loneliness, death, and existential angst.
Sonically, the ensemble is a bit more straightforward than some of its contemporaries, sticking with tried-and-true driving bass lines ("Stay on the Ground") and Iron Maiden-like harmonized lead-guitar lines ("Remember to Feel Real"). On "Walking at Night, Alone," an acoustic-guitar line even recalls the introduction to fellow New Jersey-ite Jon Bon Jovi's "Wanted Dead or Alive." With WHAT TO DO WHEN YOU ARE DEAD, Armor for Sleep finds the common ground between tuneful accessibility and intellectual rigor.

I'm not even into this kind of stuff usually, but when a friend played it for me i was hooked. Hard-Hitting, Thought-Provoking, all around just great stuff. I would definitely reccommend checking it out. Go see em with saves the day on tour now!

 too good to miss
if you do not hear this album you are missing out. this is the kind of concept album that doesnt come along very often. its a smart choice for a story line and the songs are engaging and make you feel like you are apart of it. some great headbangers and a couple of beautiful melodic songs. overall this album is fantastic! the earlier you listen to it, the better!

Great CD, really makes you think of things, and to evaluate, ever since I saw them under The Starting Lines inspirations I've been listening to their CD, and I've been enjoying it ever since I first heard it. You will love this album.

In early 2005, young indie icon Conor Oberst (AKA Bright Eyes) unveiled two full-length albums--I'M WIDE AWAKE, IT'S MORNING and DIGITAL ASH IN A DIGITAL URN. Whereas the latter proved to be a departure into electronic music, the former sticks to Oberst's established sound, which combines the urgency and heart-on-the-sleeve sentiment of emo-rock with twangy, down-home feel of alt-country and folk music.
I'M WIDE AWAKE begins with Oberst telling a story that morphs into "At the ...
