Oh! Gravity, the highly anticipated sixth album from the San Diego rock band Switchfoot, contains 12 new tracks written by the band and produced by Tim Palmer (Tin Machine, Pearl Jam, The Cure, Mother Love Bone, U2) and Switchfoot with Grammy-winning executive producer Steve Lillywhite. The new album expands Switchfoot's sonic palette while at the same time dealing with certain social issues. On songs like "Dirty Second Hands," Jon Foreman sings of the dehumanization that comes with technology. Other politically motivated tracks include "Oh! Gravity." the title track's generational appeal for love, peace and understanding, "American Dream," with its biting truth, "Awakening," about trying to recover the innocence of a child in the midst of an ever-harsher reality, the sawing alt-country of "Head Over Heels," the exotic instrumentation and Middle Easternflavor of "Circles," the REM-esque pulse of "4:12," the lush Brit-pop melodies of "Yesterdays," the Echo and the Bunnymen/Smiths influenced "Burn Out Bright" and Motown sound of "Amateur Lovers."

来自聖地亚哥的摇滚团体Switchfoot的第六张倍受期待的专辑《Oh! Gravity》，收录了12首由乐队自己创作的新歌，并由Tim Palmer(曾担任Tin Machine、Pearl Jam、The Cure、Mother Love Bone、U2等团体的制作人)和乐队03年获得格莱美最佳摇滚专辑奖的《The Beautiful Letdown》的首席制作人Steve Lillywhite联合打造。
乐队在处理某些社会问题的同时并把这种处理问题的态度加入到新专辑中。
