Hello Hurricane by Switchfoot
Hello Hurricane is an album by Switchfoot, released in 2009. 2 songs from it have charted on rock radio countdowns, with 17 countdown appearances in total. The biggest is “Mess of Me”, on 15 lists with a best position of #7.
Hello Hurricane, Switchfoot's seventh studio album, came out on November 10, 2009, a month later than planned, on the band's own Atlantic-distributed label, lowercase people records. The San Diego band tried producing it themselves and took test runs with Ken Andrews and Charlie Peacock before settling on Mike Elizondo as co-producer, cutting most of it at their Spot X Studio in their hometown.
The lineup of Jon Foreman on vocals and guitar, his brother Tim Foreman on bass, Chad Butler on drums, and Jerome Fontamillas and Drew Shirley on guitars hits hard and big here, all surging choruses and churning guitars. "Mess of Me" and "Bullet Soul" charged onto rock radio's countdowns, and at the 53rd Grammy Awards it took home a Grammy in the gospel rock category.
