On its second full-length studio album, SANTI, the Academy Is follows in the emo-goes-pop footsteps of fellow Illinois act Fall Out Boy by adding both gloss and heft to its sensitive-guy, punk-influenced sound. Easing the Academy lads into their more expansive approach is in-demand producer/performer Butch Walker, who gives each track a sterling sheen, as evinced on the wiry "LAX to O'Hare" and the catchy lead single, "We've Got a Big Mess on Our Hands." Although some Academy diehards may be put off by the group's more accessible aesthetic, SANTI shows that a broader palette suits the band just fine.

Audio Mixers: Mark Needham; Jack Joseph Puig.

Recording information: Air Lyndhurst Studios, London, England; Pulse Recording, Silverlake, CA.

Photographers: Marvin Scott Jarrett; Jack Edinger.

The Academy Is...: Adam T. Siska (bass guitar); Andy 'The Butcher' Mrotek (drums, background vocals); Mike Carden, William Beckett, Michael-Guy Chislett.

Personnel: William Beckett (vocals, background vocals); Michael-Guy Chislett (guitar, keyboards); Mike Carden (guitar); Butch Walker (keyboards, background vocals); Andy Mrotek (drums, background vocals).

Entertainment Weekly (p.77) - "[Their] just-edgy-enough indie punk has an endearing salty sweetness." -- Grade: B
Alternative Press (p.158) - 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "[G]et a load of the catchy guitar riffs, slick harmonies and arena-sized drumming....It all works..."
CMJ (p.43) - "[T]he group pairs singer/songwriter William Beckett's emotive lyrics and rousing vocal range with a straightforward rock kapow."

5 stars Amazing.
I've been a of TAI for a few years now and I can easily say that they are my favourite band, ever. They never fail to amaze me. Also, if you guys can get your hands on their EP that came out in 2004 (which is unfortunately sold out), I encourage you to listen to it. It's great. If they are in your town or country, see them! They are just breath taking. Love, love this band!
