I rebelled against it something fierce but in the right mood it's actually a quite fun record. In fact I bet a lot of these new bandwagon fans will like this album a heck of a lot more than us old crusties.

I liked it from day 1. Better than AOA.

I finally ordered all three of the last three albums, even though I already have digital copies. Although I've listened to AOA many times, I've bearly touched the two HitnRuns. I'm going to try them out more when they get here... I sincerely hope there isn't a post-passing album with that final twitter avatar on it's cover...

From the Xface to the end, it's great record -- can't say it has a strong first half.

From beginning to end, AOA is the better album. Certainly better than hit n run1.

I put it on after listening to "Phase Two". I think "Two" is better, but my favorite tracks are "June", "Hardrocklover" and "Mr. Nelson".

NO! Not better for me. AOA seems cathartic now. It's a concept album, has a thread, a story.

But you're entitled to your opinion too.

I prefer AOA and HNR2 over HNR 1 and PE but I used to hate HNR 1 so I experienced a net gain LOL. But PE? Still not hooked!
