Who We Are is another set of rousing anthems from this reflective trio. On their fourth full-length, the Los Angeles three-piece sets the template for a harder-rocking effort with dynamic opener "Disarray," in which singer/guitarist Jason Wade admits he doesn't know where he's going, but "wouldn't have it any other way." The band rocks even harder on album highlight "The Joke," a song inspired by a real-life suicide. It's a risk that pays off, although the lyrics almost make the subject seem more defiant than regretful. Throughout the record, Rick Woolstenhulme's drums sound like they're cranked up to 11--not that there's anything wrong with that (Bryce Soderberg holds his own on bass). In other words, the music isn't shy (or subtle), but Wade's words read more like questions than answers. Granted, closing number "Storm," with Rocco DeLuca on organ, brings things to a gentle close, but most tracks follow in the over-sized footsteps of post-grunge precursors, like Live and Stone Temple Pilots. Then again, as Abigail Van Buren used to say, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it." If Lifehouse ever find what they're looking for, to paraphrase yet another sage, they may as well pack it in. --Kathleen C. Fennessy
Album Description
Lifehouse is singer-guitarist Jason Wade, drummer Rick Woolstenhulme and bassist-singer Bryce Soderberg. These three guys are a hit making machine! Jason Wade proved himself a gifted songwriter with Lifehouse's first record, 2000's multiplatinum No Name Face, which spawned the #1 hit "Hanging by a Moment." Calling that song a hit, however, is a bit of an understatement as "Hanging by a Moment" was the most-played song of 2001. Stanley Climbfall, the band's Top 10 follow-up, was released in 2002. 2005 saw the release of their third album simply titled Lifehouse which included the undeniable hit #1 multi-format hit "You And Me" and kept the band out on the road touring for over a year. With Who We Are, Lifehouse takes another evolutionary step making an upbeat album full of potential hits sure to please fans and make new ones.
Album Description
Japanese pressing of their 2007 album featuring three bonus tracks: 'Keep The Change', 'I Want You To Know' and 'You And Me (Live In Portland)'. With Who We Are, their fourth Geffen album in seven years, Lifehouse, all still in their mid-20s, are really starting to enjoy the fruits of their success and have some fun. Their multi-platinum 2000 debut, No Name Face, produced "Hanging by a Moment," a #1 alternative hit which crossed over to become Top 40's Most Played Song, while 2005's self-titled platinum effort yielded "You and Me," a giant hit ballad that set a record by spending more than 60 weeks on Billboard's Hot 100 chart, Lifehouse are not just the sum of their considerable accomplishments

MY FAVORITE CD - DOESN'T MOVE FROM MY CD PLAYER IN MY CAR! December 19, 2008
I liked Lifehouse when I first got this CD. But after listening to this CD - I totally fell in love with the band.....the entire CD is a mixture of ballards and some semi-hard stuff as well - it's very diverse. This is my FAVORITE CD and I can't get enough of it.......I can't get the songs out of my head and My god - Jason Wade's voice.......is like no other....I AM A HUGE LIFEHOUSE FAN AFTER "WHO WE ARE"..... I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS CD TO ANYONE.
What a masterpiece Lifehouse has done it again. November 19, 2008
All the songs on this CD totally rock, can't stop listening to them. thier last Cd was good it was kind of a more slow version of lifehouse which I like, this one is really good all around, its kind of like all thier styles of music put together. the song writing is really good as always, the kind of songs that really make you think, and that actually mean something. Which alot of other artist lack extremely. the music rocks I love how they change the sound of every song. My favorites are Whatever it Takes, Broken, First Time, Mesmerized, Who We Are, oh who am i kinding I like them all. The vocals are out of this world. If you want to listen to real music buy this CD.
 new to me September 7, 2008
This group was new to me, but I like their sound. The message in the words is a little light, though.
