Tell All Your Friends, the debut album from Long Island rock group Taking Back Sunday, is a superb collection of tracks.

This is their first debut album. This band is amazing; this album has so much to it. I am seeing them in January 2006. I can't remember when I got into them, about 3-4 years ago. It is a combination of emo to grungy to nice rocky sounds. Their lyrics are passionate and heartfelt that any listener easily identifies with. Talking about love to break ups, to the how life is. ---------------------------- ALBUM SONG LIST ---------------------------- 1. You Know How I Do 2. Bike Scene 3.
