Hello Hurricane is an album full of heartfelt vocals and lyrics, as the songwriting is as honest and open as it can get. The transition between songs could not be any better and there is a perfect balance of alternative rock songs and ballads which closes out the album. The theme, or anthem of this album is heard loud and clear with the track, The Sound. This is the song that the crowds will go wild at during concerts because the energy is so incredibly high and the message is so inspirational. While inspiration is present in every track, most notably the edgy “Mess of Me” which declares independence, there is not one song in particular that stands out like "Only Hope" or "I Dare You to Move" have from previous albums. Every track is catchy, especially the album opener, Needle and Haystack, which sets the tone of the album beautifully. The lyrics in the more subdued tracks, ballads, Sing It Out and Your Love is a Song will grab you, leaving you singing these songs for days. Enough To Let Me Go and Free are the most relatable and thought provoking tracks on the album that many will probably cover on YouTube. Whether you are a Switchfoot fan from the early days or a new Switchfoot fan, you will enjoy all 12 tracks, which are all crowd pleasers! You are lucky if you see the band play this album live.
