	Against Me! - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Though many fans welcomed the opportunity of more exposure for the band, some older fans and those with anarchist sensibilities themselves were less pleased.
		Some even considered the band sell-outs, as the band had, according to them, gone against their former ideals, such as a DIY ethic and anti-capitalist standings.
		Their latest album Searching For A Former Clarity was released on September 6, 2005.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Martin Luther
		The legate, with the reputation of "the most renowned and easily the first theologian of his age", could not fail to be shocked at the rude, discourteous, bawling tone of the friar, and having exhausted all his efforts, he dismissed him with the injunction not to call again until he recanted.
		It unfolded the affluence, clarity, and vigour of the German tongue in a manner and with a result that stands almost without a parallel in the history of German literature.
		The former found his preaching mixed with deadly poison for the German people, the latter pronounced Wittenberg a sink of error, a hothouse of heresy.

	DECAPOLIS : Against Me! - Searching For A Former Clarity
		"Searching For A Former Clarity" is this Florida folky punk rock group newest album.
		They are willing to stretch their sound into straight up rock 'n roll but also able to crawl back into roots of country/folk music and able to keep their punk edge with both.
		"Searching For A Former Clarity" is their boldest move yet.

	Against Me: Aversion.com Interview
		Not old-fashioned in the old-timey handlebar-moustache, moonshine jug and washtub bass act, thank God, as its latest, Searching for a Former Clarity (Fat) is a searing dose of modern punk inflected with doses of folk, country and other pieces of rusty Americana.
		Searching for a Former Clarity chucks the monkey-see-monkey-do overtones that have hobbled the punk underground for years to develop a sound and a lyrical perspective that finds a startlingly workable balance between punk rock traditions and the courage to go out on a limb, both musically and lyrically, and open itself up for criticism.
		Amid the record-company feeding frenzy, Searching for a Former Clarity became Fat’s most anticipated release of the year, with the band previewing many of the new tracks at Austin’s South By Southwest Music Festival way back in March.

		On the other hand, Clarity is a fantastic album, and I'm sad for you and everyone else who can't recognize that.
		However, beginning with “How Low,” Clarity manages to end relatively strong with the remaining tracks ranging from decent to awesome with the best track being “Joy.” Somewhat of a return to “Sink Florida, Sink,” “Joy” is without percussion and equipped with an acoustic.
		Searching For a Former Clarity, leaves me wanting nothing more than searching for a coffee.

	Against Me! Serves Up Punk Politics On 'Searching For A Former Clarity' - Focus (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		The band released their third full length album, "Searching For A Former Clarity," on punk label Fat Wreck Chords this week.
		Once known for singing songs about drinking Guinness and their anarchist mentality, the band has begun writing about the highs and lows of the past two years as they take on their growing popularity.
		"Searching For A Former Clarity" is a step up from their previous release, "As The Eternal Cowboy," in terms of musicianship and production, as well as a more obvious political stance on today's issues.

		The van incident is a graphic example of finding a silver lining in the clouds, a result, no doubt, of the positive attitude currently being exuded by Gabel and his band, completed by drummer Warren Oakes, bassist Andrew Seward and guitarist/vocalist James Bowman.
		The group put themselves in the shop to get a new mindset before recording their latest effort for Fat Wreck Chords, Searching for a Former Clarity.
		Searching for a Former Clarity is currently available.

	Against Me: Searching for a Former Clarity Aversion.com Review
		Searching for a Former Clarity is a touch more punk than the band’s previous folk-punk efforts, but it’s still worlds away from the three-chord flatulence that passes for most of punk rock these days.
		All punk-rock viability aside, Gabel’s lyrics are the keystone of Searching for a Former Clarity.
		He tackles everything that crosses his path with equal vitriol, be it socially conscious tirades or self-anthologizing confessionals, without resorting to the stable of clichés that trip up so many of his punk compatriots.

	Blogcritics.org: CD Review: Against Me! - Searching For A Former Clarity
		Though Searching for a Former Clarity certainly sounds fresh, it wouldn't be too difficult to imagine songs from 2003's As the Eternal Cowboy fitting into the album, or vice versa.
		There are a few tracks, such as the Bush-bashing "From Her Lips to God's Ears", that burst with an urgency and energy that replaces a playfulness on similar songs from the past.
		The band screeches "Condoleezza!" as lead singer Tom Gabel accusingly asks "What are we gonna do now?" When the band mellows out on "Searching for a Former Clarity" Gabel grabs hold of the opportunity to achieve an intimacy seldom heard in punk rock, showing off his rough, but rich voice.

		The new Against Me! album, Searching for a Former Clarity, hit the streets in early September.
		Slow to start and certainly lacking at points, Searching for a Former Clarity is an otherwise excellent follow-up to Against Me!'s previous work.
		Providing the biting intelligence of the Clash's London Calling in a modern band, Clarity is sure to find a home in the bookstores and basements of underground America.

		How long have we all been waiting for this album, pining for that band which we love so much, replaying our CD's and DVD over and over again trying to figure out what this record will potentially sound like.
		"Searching For a Former Clarity," is not a full blown disappointment, but perhaps just a bit of a let down in the third degree.
		It's no shocker that a bunch of demos were leaked onto the internet some months ago and people began writing off this album as garbage before it even hit the shelves.

		Without hearing a note, fans have plenty to be excited about with Searching for a Former Clarity, being that the band stepped into a new recording environment and was produced by the imaginative and impeccable J. Robbins (ex-Government Issue and Jawbox).
		For good reason, Searching for a Former Clarity is one of the most widely anticipated records of 2005.
		One of the greatest challenges musicians face is how to remain true to themselves when their circumstances are drastically transformed.

		Searching for a Former Clarity has songs for everyone, while still being the album longtime fans would want to hear.
		The disc kicks off with a long guitar intro in "Miami," which is the standard Against Me! song with throaty, gritty vocals over a bluesy guitar, and a rhythm section with lots of cymbal.
		How long can you hold their attention?" Such point-blank lyrics are what make Against Me! so appealing, and the band doesn't disappoint on Searching for a Former Clarity.

	PunkROCKS.net CD Review - Against Me - Searching For A Former Clarity
		Their chorus’ are memorable, the lyrical quality is outstanding and the general presentation most bands don’t get until their 4th or 5th record.
		Robbins from Jawbox handled the audio documentation of “Searching For A Former Clarity” and I don’t think I have heard a more stellar representation of a bands sound since Mewithoutyou’s first record.
		Somewhat inspired from their DVD released a few months ago (which is also worth every penny), the song “Unprotected Sex With Multiple Partners” showcases a band stuck between the world of basement shows and an exploding rush of popularity where managers, booking agents and everyone else is scrambling for their cut.

		It's also a conflicted record; it's filled with internal ruminations, raw emotions and a distancing wall of sound, but it is nevertheless their most thoughtful and accomplished piece of songwriting and a record that grows more rewarding with each listen.
		i have listened to 'searching...' for two months straight now and all i can say is that it is a fantastic album.
		Not that SFAFC is the worst ablum I've heard in a long time but is definitely not up to par with their other albums.

		When it comes to AM!, the things they say are presented in a self-deprecating manner and singer/songwriter Tom Babel’s amazing lyrics never cease to crack a smile or produce a tear and perhaps even a sob-choked guffaw.
		The lyrics on Clarity are of the post 9/11 hybridization of fear and xenophobia variety.
		It’s in the marriage of drums, bass, gang vocals and guitar that those meanings and connotations are bent to the will of the band, and through that lyrical communication it inspires images of bi-polar, manic paranoia.

		Now that my curiousity has been satisfied with the release of Searching For A Former Clarity, it seems wonderfully clear that this group has stridently grown along with, and even beyond the size of their swelling fanbase.
		For starters, Searching For A Former Clarity rocks.
		I'm not sure if AGAINST ME! will ever find the clarity that it is looking for, but I can say that listening to this album is illuminating in the sense that great things can still be made in music especially in a time where original efforts come at a premium.

	Blogcritics.org: CD Review: Against Me! - Searching For A Former Clarity
		The pre-release lowdown on Searching For A Former Clarity was that it stretched the boundaries of punk rock.
		I did enjoy the song "Holy Shit!" for its judicious use of the exclamation point, its take on the surreal nature of reality, and the fact that its a tune you actually sing along with.
		So Searching For A Former Clarity left me searching for the off button on my CD player.

		The latter, however it is to be characterized in detail, is a large social fact; the former, whether it is true or false or meaningful or nonsensical, is precisely a theory; one can be a participant in postmodern culture without espousing postmodernist doctrine.
		The short path out of these woods is to deny that a person and his or her persona are identical: you are not who you pretend to be, but rather you are pretending to be someone in such a way as to call upon your verbal, emotional, and imaginative resources to accomplish the pretense.
		That this is a fallacy is evident from the fact that the computer does not force the user to jump around in the manner that it enables.

		While the lead track, 'Miami,' uses a horn section to offset barbs about useless antibiotics and ballots drifting out to sea, elsewhere the songs clang with a raw scowl."

		The album both incorperates hard, political punk and slow ballads.
		The band can slow down and play beautiful melodies, for example, the titular song, "Searching For A Former Clarity," where Gabel sings about his struggle with drugs.
		I imagine some people would get tired of Gabel's growl by the end of the album, but that's a matter of taste.

		However, by the second half of Searching For A Former Clarity the band just regurgitate what they've done on the first part.
		Sure, the hooks are genuinely catchy (none of that whiny pop-punk bullshit), but they draw from the same well far too often on an album that is far too long for its own good.
		This former rodeo rider and punk rocker has now found that singing about the country suits him best.
