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."

來自聖地亞哥的搖滾團體Switchfoot的第六張倍受期待的專輯《Oh! Gravity》，收錄了12首由樂隊自己創作的新歌，并由Tim Palmer(曾擔任Tin Machine、Pearl Jam、The Cure、Mother Love Bone、U2等團體的制作人)和樂隊03年獲得格萊美最佳搖滾專輯獎的《The Beautiful Letdown》的首席制作人Steve Lillywhite聯合打造。
樂隊在處理某些社會問題的同時并把這種處理問題的態度加入到新專輯中。
