Surprising tempo changes and skillfully rendered lyrics, such as in "Mint Chips" make no track boring. Classical instrumentation such as in "Breaking Through," featuring cellist Charlie Bennet, add to the group's multi-instrumentalist appeal. Each track contains an inspiring message, especially for those looking to break into the music industry. "Elevate" contains a simple but right-on message, "Elevate to a higher level." Be yourself, get to where you want to be with hard work, and things will fall into place. The milky vocals in "This Road" provided by songstress Rachel Palumbo provides judt enough sexy feminine edge. Herlihy freestyles like a quick change artist; his lyrics are fast and to the point, because extra verbage is unecessary when rhyming what you feel. The album's phenomenally done. Make sure you give it a listen.
