Songs not used in the Fading West film appear on new Switchfoot mini-album
A SEVEN-song mini-album has been released by rock stalwarts Switchfoot. 'The Edge Of
The Earth' features tracks recorded for the film Fading West which
didn't make the soundtrack cut. Read one review, "One could look as
these songs as merely leftovers from a higher profile album, but that
would miss the point. The key lesson to take away from 'The Edge Of
The Earth' is that nothing is ever wasted. One should put their all
into everything they do, regardless of the end result. These seven
tracks didn't quite fit with the spirit of Fading West's soundtrack,
but the songs speak for themselves, and the project is another
reminder of why Switchfoot has remained a top-tier band for
so long. There's just no mistaking it; 'The Edge Of The Earth' is one
of 2014's surprise knockouts."
