Customer Rating:      Summary: not as advertised Comment: I love 3 doors down. When I downloaded this c.d. it was not 'the better life'
it was 'away from the sun' now I can't return it because its open but I can warn others. It came in 'the better life' case & the c.d. is also marked 'the better lfe' BUT IT'S NOT! I'm totally P.O.'d about this. Now I've bought the same c.d. 2x.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Eh, it wears off. Comment: I remember buying this album a year or so after it came out- I thought it was brilliant. It wears off though, the 'southern grunge' feeling gets too annoying.
Customer Rating:      Summary: An must overdue review of 3 Doors Down Comment: I purchased this cd in may of 2001. 4 1/2 year later. The cd is still great only now starting to scratch on track 10 and 11. I was 13 when I purchased it. A friend as always recommended it to me. At the time I was living in Alaska and I was frequently camping or fishing for King Salmon. This cd was perfect blasting out of my boom box. Now 5 years later in the New England area it's still good. From start to end. I recommend this to anyone who wants a kick laid back weekend/summer cd.
Thanks for reading.
Customer Rating:      Summary: 3 doors down Comment: I'm in Iraq and it was nice to be able to get the cd's i wanted to hear Thanks
Customer Rating:      Summary: Really good Comment: I can't believe that this is almost 6 years old. Where has the time gone? It doesn't seem that long, because I'm still enjoying this cd. They are a great group and of course the best song here is Kryptonite. Amazing. Smack and So I Need You are also great, the rest is good. I do love this cd and some of their later work. I guess this is such a great cd because of Kryptonite but in general I really love their sound and edge. If you want a good rock cd, this is it. I really recommend this.

Editorial Reviews:
|
The Mississippi-based quartet 3 Doors Down has only one thing that sets them apart from other hard rock bands: lead vocalist Brad Arnold is also the drummer. The group shops the sounds of Pearl Jam and the Goo Goo Dolls, pointing at what they like, picking it off the shelf, and throwing it into the stew. While the music on The Better Life, their debut, sounds overall both competent and confident, the songs themselves are equally uninspired and clichéd. For example, the riff from the track "Loser" is straight out of the Alice in Chains songbook, adding much more cringe-worthy lyrics ("Addiction needs a pacifier, the buzz of this poison is taking me higher"). In fact, most of the lyrics zero in on well-worn rock themes of aggravation, confusion, and frustration, feelings that 3 Doors Down will easily coax out of discriminating listeners. --Jason Josephes
