THE BRAVERY

The Bravery released their third studio album, Stir the Blood on December 1st, on Island Records. The New York based band first dawned on me when an "Honest Mistake" from their self entitled 2005 debut was featured on The O.C, season 2. Their 2007 follow-up, The Sun and the Moon, failed to meet the standard set by their debut. If something stirs the blood it brings about the feeling of excitement, a trait the new album falls short of.
