The songs range from poppy rock to acoustic to emoish. I would recommend this to fans of Incomplete, Onceid, or Custome Deluxe. All the songs are well written and the music plays perfectly with the lyrics.

Five Minute Plan rocks! I heard [their song] The Cycle on myspace. I was very impressed with it. - Bryan Bosmans, Quickstar Productions
If you want pop-punk built on the foundation laid in Gainesville and New Jersey, but with a bit more capability on the fretboard than the average second-stage Warped Tour act, keep an eye on Five Minute Plan. - Jeffrey Shoup
Great indie band to check out.

Bio
Five Minute Plan is an indie rock quartet from Central Florida that has been releasing their own material and taking their exciting live performance all over the state for five years, while finding new fans from around the world over the internet every day. Their catchy pop songs belie a deeper meaning through their lyrics, a message of hope and strength for the future. 5MP songs deal with issues of spirituality, morality, drug abuse, growing up, and staying true to yourself as opposed to being constantly fixated on girl problems and self loathing.
Fans often note diversity of influence and sound along with a noticeable songwriting maturity as a large part of Five Minute Plan's appeal. Two distinct vocalists/songwriters along with years of experience no doubt lend to this perception. Influences include Third Eye Blind, Boston, Steely Dan, mxpx, The Get Up Kids, Saves the Day, Weezer and Jimmy Eat World.
