While opener “The Edge Of The World (Prelude)” might led you to believe that you’re listening to the new Copeland album with its extremely mellow mood, the rest of the songs on Flood Of Red’s debut album are upbeat affairs that have more in common with Saosin… with a thick Scottish accent that is.

It’s all pretty well done. These guys have a knack for writing catchy tunes that sure are energetic enough. But listening to the whole thing at once is somewhat of an undertaking seeing as Flood Of Red’s material tends to sound somewhat alike after the first couple of tracks.

“Leaving Everything Behind” is a decent enough album but it’s nothing you haven’t already heard before.

Lacking the talent to actually play in a band, Tom decided he would write about bands instead. Turns out his writing skills are mediocre at best as well.
