Deja Entendu by Brand New

After I heard this for the first time, something just clicked and I saw the beauty that can be found in music. I realized that an album is more than just 10 or so songs put together, it's more like a snapshot of an artist's life at that one point in time. And everything from the lyrics to the instrumentation to every subtle note has a purpose of being there. Today I listen to a wide variety of genres and I have this album to thank for exposing me to music I could really connect to.

I'd highly encourage anyone who hasn't heard this album to give it a shot. I don't expect it to change your life or anything, just some good music.
