There Are No Leagues has solid multi-part harmonies and allows all elements of History of Something ample opportunity to shine. Better When You’re With Me is an energetic track that ties together The Replacements, Boston, and Brookside into something incredibly catchy and radio-ready.
Unfortunate Events (featuring Bobby Morin) is tremendously effecting and is reminiscent of Goo Goo Dolls. Honest, earnest, and fun, You Are. We Are. For Life is a great introduction to this power pop band.
Rating: 8.9/10
