I've grown to love this band as they have a strong catalogue under their belts. I've also seen them live three times and witnessed how good they are.
Their journey to build a strong credibility continues as they dropped their first single, Love & Drugs, which got me hooked in an instant. However, when I listened to the album in its entirety, I have to admit that I was taken aback. Their music seemed to change which can be a good thing. It's not exactly bad but it wasn't the same formula they've been using.
But I did not simply give up on them. I continued to listen to the album on a daily basis and it is a grower. I finally appreciated the change in their music and must say that they have grown a lot. The change in label really had a positive effect on them.
John's voice is a strong as it has always been and the songs has a deeper message and less filled with unnecessary production.
They manage to keep a good balance between upbeat and slower paced songs as well.
I ended up loving this album more than I thought
