Summary: A record that is unbreakable!
Comment: This album is definitely their best! I wasn't a huge fan before but I definitely am now with this album. With healing of harms you can tell it's a christian album when there was like god said in every song...in this album it's more subtle and everyone other than christians can enjoy...the lyrics are uplifting...this is one of very few albums that I love like every song...
Songs to note:-
'Unbreakable' is a song where it makes you feel like you can go out there and do anythin' that you put your mind to..
'Brand new day' is one that I have as my alarm in the mornin'. It's definitely one to listen to start off your day and 'pushes' you out of bed when you don't feel like it..
'Stand Up' and 'Go Ahead' can you tell from the titles what they're tryin to say?
'Wrapped in your Arms'- the ballad of the lot...it starts of slow and then just swells towards the end..definitely one of my favorites of this album
'The hunger' is my least fav.- I don't like the melody too much, not as catchy as the rest..but it came out as a single though...so if you like this one you'd definitely love this album.
I've been listenin' to this album like daily since its release and haven't stopped since...

Summary: Quite an amazing CD! Excellent rock music from a band I haven't known long
Comment: As stated above, I really did not know much about this band other than the song "Unbreakable". I bought the CD because I figured if that song was good, the rest of the CD would be too.
And thankfully, I was right!
This CD is amazing! Every single one of these songs have really great rock sounds to them and most every song sounds different from the rest. Each of these songs can truly stand alone, and that's a good thing! To any rocker out there, you will love this band. Also, any Christian rockers (or Christian music-lovers in general) will go nuts about this CD. My favorites are "Unbreakable", "Stand Up", "The Hunger", "Forever", and "Brand New Day". You WILL love this CD if you buy it. So go ahead, buy it! haha

Summary: They'll return but I'll be stronger
Comment: It's always going to be hard for a band to top a debut as loved as Fireflight's The Healing of Harms, yet that's exactly the task Fireflight had to tackle with Unbreakable. So how did they fair? Far better than could have been expected is how.
Way #1 to top your debut: Create buzz.
There wasn't a lot mind you, but they set up a website (a pretty cool one at that), iamunbreakable.com. This gained the appropriate attention amongst fans and word of mouth.
Way #2: Create better--more crushing--music.
My God the breakdowns! If you have a system in your car, Unbreakable is definitely a CD you'll wanna test out for yourself. The Hunger, Stand Up, and So Help Me God are all tunes that pushed the envelope that Fireflight had successfully created originally into a new, better, direction.
Way #3: Make sure the lyrics mature, yet stay relevent.
Well, actually, title explains it all.
Those are the three main 'new' qualities brought to the table this time around. Holding steady at amazing is Dawn's excellent, demanding, vocals. The two halfway ballads, Forever and Wrapped In Your Arms introduce the famed rock ballads into Fireflight's catalog. Oddly enough, those are probably my two favorites too.
So! In my humble opinion, Fireflight destroys their debut with Unbreakable. It's almost like The Healing of Harms was laying the groundwork for Unbreakable to come in and prove beyond a shadow of a doubt, that yes, Fireflight is for real. Highly recommended.

Summary: What a Surprise!
Comment: I'd never heard of this band when I found them on the roster for the Creation Festival. So, I decided to give them a listen, and wow!
What a refreshing, uplifting surprise to hear a Christian band with musical sophistication--powerfully honest, thoughtful lyrics combined with powerful vocals, post-grunge sound in the neighborhood of Switchfoot and Nickelback, with it's own unique twist. Hardly a bland or bad track to be found!

Summary: Awesome!!!!!!!!!
Comment: I saw this Christian band perform on front row live, I thought they sounded awesome. This album is truly great Unbreakable the 1st song gets it started and it is very catchy. Their message is very God centered and the lyrics are very well written. It is also very uplifting, right now most songs out there are so depressing, the song makes for a nice change of pace. The rest of the album is also very good, mostly fast paced songs although they do have a few slower ones on there. I would highly recommend this album to anyone looking for a well written rocking Christian album.
