The Verge is the third and final full-length album from the alternative rock band There For Tomorrow. It was released on Hopeless Records on June 28, 2011. The album was voted one of the most anticipated albums of the year by the Alternative Press. The album's first single, "Hunt Hunt Hunt", was released on February 29, 2011.[5] The Verge's album art and track listing was released on May 12, 2011,[6] with each song length released on May 29.[7]
Reception
Overall reception has been mixed for The Verge. Alter the Press said that There for Tomorrow "have upped the ante significantly" in their music writing.[3] Many reviewers note the progress in their writing, Maile's falsetto on BLU, and how longtime fans would be pleased. Others disagreed. One reviewer wrote "The worst part about this disappointing effort is the obvious attempt to move their music to the next level by creating more sophisticated arrangements, which seems to have caused the band to forget how to write a simple catchy hook".[8]
