Claude says:Lifehouse came into the studio for their fourth album with nothing but Jason Wade's lyrics — no demos, no roadmap — and cut it live with the kind of urgency Wade compared to a first kiss. The result was a Gold-certified record that balanced adult alternative polish with moments of raw electric rock, executive produced by their manager Jude Cole and focused on the emotional swings of love and struggle. You got into it a year after release in May 2008 and played it heavily that month, especially "Bridges," "Broken," and "First Time," then let it go by summer's end.
