With this album, the band takes a step back. They reflect on their own creations, on their little hometown, and the state in which they live. It sounds as if the band is taking it easier. This is incorrect. The band has oriented itself more towards their older works in terms of sound. The gas pedal is not pushed all the way down. Still, the album has a lot of fire in its belly. This is simply due to the captivating melodies that the band has packed into the 14 new songs. The melodic garment carries the lyrics that swing between everyday observations, personal experiences, and social criticism. LESS THAN JAKE try to make this world a little better through their music, but they always have a smile on their faces. Because smiling does not mean closing your eyes, especially to what is not going well in this world. This has always been the band's approach, and they maintain it on “GNV FLA“.
LESS THAN JAKE have always preserved their own style, rarely jumping on the big trains that passed by. Instead, they built their own train, which they have been thundering through the lands with for years. For this independence alone, LESS THAN JAKE deserves praise. Even if at times this album sounds a bit more mature and calmer, the lyrics are far from it. Perhaps this album is a turning point in the band's history. Or maybe it's just the passage of time. The fact remains that LESS THAN JAKE have set another milestone in their band history with this album.
