Reviews In Brief
"The Wait is a Gift", in my opinion, is the finest Nada Surf album- among a discography that is stellar. The songs are personal, introspective, optimistic and cerebral. All emotions from love to questioning it or despair to 'it's gonna be ok'. The songs make you look into yourself and understand who you are and how you are going to persevere. All with gorgeous melodies, hooks and beats. I could ramble about each song, but it's better if you play it, close your eyes and understand the weight IS a gift.
Favorite Songs: It should be listened to altogether.
