Standby for one of the most eagerly awaited albums of 2003. Following the band's success on the soundtrack to the Mandy Moore movie A Walk To Remember, this album looks like being the one to propel the band to crossover success. Packed with powerful songs from the pen of bandleader Jon Foreman, he continues to write songs that unlock the secrets of the cosmos and simultaneously explore the frailties of the human heart without ever reverting to the usual cliches. Foreman himself describes the album as "an honest attempt to reflect on the great and terrible aspects of being human, the tension of existence. The Beautiful Letdown is where meaning and hope invade our greatest and worst moments. The Beautiful Letdown is where we live, who we are, and where the future begins." The result is an album that stretches from the anthemic remake of Dare You To Move through the frenetic fury of Ammunition to the intensity of the title cut which recognises that the life of the believer stretches on beyond the world we can see.
