10. Gaucho- Great instrumentals, lyrics are iffy at times but a solid tune. (7.5/10)
9. Belly Full- Such a nice, lovely, good song. Very solid, I think it's something fresh. Just Dave's tone and everything in this song made me excited to hear this as E1. I LOVE FOLKY DAVE! (8.5/10)
8. Sweet- I was there on July 8, 2011 at this song's birth. And to this day I love it just as much, especially when the full band kicks in. Goosebumps every damn time (8.9/10)
7. If Only- A new DMB sound that I can really dig, translates great live and the groove is unreal. Fell in love when I first heard the tapes and get something new out of it each time. Keep more of this coming. (9/10)
6. The Riff- This song is my bitch, so raw and awesome. It just works in every damn way, but I love it more live to be honest. (9.2/10)
5. Drunken Solider- I was expecting too much from this song....and I was just barely underwhelmed, the outro and the amazing chorus did it for me though. I don't think it's a Last Stop or anything but it def. is awesome. Epic way to end this almost perfect album. (9.4/10)
4. Broken Things- I feel bad for putting this so low, this is a nearly perfect song and maybe my mind will change but let it be known as soon as this came on I knew we were back in business (9.5/10)
3. Belly Belly Full- I just can't believe that this song is still in my head, it's a beast live and translated great to the disc. Everything I wish SMLAM could have been. (9.7/10)
2. Snow Outside- This is our LITHOG, our Say Goodbye, our return to Big 3 material. Such a great, great song and it will be a classic forever. (9.9/10)
1. Rooftop- THIS GOD DAMN SONG IS UNREAL! THE CHORUS, THE BRIDGE, THE EPIC AWESOME SURPRISE, HOLY CRAP!!! THAT RIFF!! (10/10) I WANT YOU TO TELL ME THAT YOU LOVE ME!!
Overall the album is at a 9.0/10.0 and rising!!
