Take It to the Limit is the second studio album by American rock band Hinder, released November 4, 2008 on Universal Republic Records.

It has a much heavier glam metal and a lesser post-grunge influence than their last album, while retaining the elements of hard rock that the band had previously used.

Hinder started playing at least two new songs at each show, one in a full-band version and another in a stripped-down, acoustic arrangement in their 2007 tours.

[5] Entertainment Weekly gave a grade of C+ and cited their lack of originality and contrasting song styles of hard rock and ballads.

Chris Willman explained, "If you were ever young and in love, dumb with drink, and had a head swimming with not just Boone's Farm wine but also Def Leppard, Bon Jovi, and AC/DC (to name these guys' most blatant anthemic influences), you may be willing to forgive Hinder's lack of originality and preponderance of madonna/whore issues.

"[3] He summed up by saying "If only the whiplash they induce resulted from real headbanging, not from trying to follow Hinder's song-to-song indecision about whether to be studs or wimps.

"[3] In a more positive review Hard Rock Hideout [6] gave it 4.5 out of five stars saying that "Take It To The Limit is a stronger album from start to finish than the band's debut, and Hinder is one of the bands leading the revival for straight up rock-n-roll and “Take It To The Limit” is going to go a long way in helping the cause."
