Pretty Good
Not as good compared to their other CDs. Ok this CD is alright. I hate Behind the Screams, its so pointless. All it is is an acoustic guitar strumming slowly. Personally, I like fast music, slow stuff just bores me. Thats why this CD isnt as good, the songs are slower. My personal favorites are As The Tables Turn and Sniped because their the fastest. This CD is good enough to buy though I believe.


A logical progression from IDR
"An Answer Can Be Found" marks another evolution in the song writing prowess of Deron Miller. Nobody should be surprised that CKY's third album is excellent. As a seven-year fan of the band, I've grown to eagerly anticipate hearing each new addition to the catalog of the hardest working frontman in rock music.

I truly believe that CKY would never release an album if it was not a significant improvement over the preceeding collection--indeed, they never have. On all fronts, AACBF tops IDR (itself being "Volume 1" to another level). Chad Ginsburg's production verges on prodigious. A great ear coupled with a meticulous dedication to his craft yields something of a soundscape experience.

Jess Margera's drumming perfectly complements the music. He gets more technical on AACBF, but still doesn't overplay, show-off or try to draw attention to himself.

This record doesn't fade out or get boring--quite the opposite, actually. The saccharine appeal of AACBF, like the band's two previous albums, is a taste acquired.

Buy it and let it play through on your car stereo a few times a week. Eventually you'll need a daily fix.

The answer was found
My most favorite song is song #10! SNIPED! This is a VERY heavy song! I'm a heavy metal kind of guy and if you're like me, you'll love this song too. This is my favorite CD! All the songs are great. I reccomend this CD to anyone!.


The Answer is Yes
I was happy that CKY had a new album out, so I bought it. I have had this album for a while now but I just decided to write a review on it. It was awesome. There are a lot of guitar solos on this album, which is good in a way. I enjoy almost every track on this album.

1. Suddenly Tragic: 5/5. This song is very catchy, and the solo is pretty cool.

2. The Way You Lived: 3/5. This is pretty catchy, but it's also quite slow. But it's still okay.

3. Dressed in Decay: 5/5. I like this song a lot. I didn't really like it unitl I actually took the time to listen to it.

4. Familiar Realm: 5/5. This was the first single off of this album. It's very good, catchy, and I think some people can relate to the lyrics.

5. All Power To Slaves: 5/5. This is one of the best songs on the album. I love the solo. The whole song is really catchy.

6. Tripled Manic State: 5/5. This song is also one of my favorites on the album. It is so catchy and what makes it different from other songs is that the verses are fast and the chorus is slow. Usually a verse is slower than the chorus. But whatever. It's a great song.

7. Behind the Screams: 5/5. This is a classical style melody with no drums or anything. It is all instrumental. This is very peaceful and relaxing.

8. Deceit is Striking Gold: 4/5. I like the intro to this song. The intro sounds familiar but I don't remember where I heard it before. But it's a great song.

9. As the Tables Turn: 4/5. This song is awesome. I didn't really appreciate it until I heard it from start to finish. My only complaint is that the guitar solo doesn't really fit the rest of the song.

10. Sniped: 2/5. This is by far the heaviest song on the entire album. I had no idea what Deron was growling. But I guess it's okay if you like heavier stuff.

11. Don't Hold Your Breath: 3/5. This is a nice slow song. It's no "Close Yet Far", but I still like it.

So, buy this album because it is one of CKY's best.
