Since then, she has married Nickelback frontman Chad Kroeger who appears on the new album with a track called Let Me Go which happens to be the third single of the album.
Avril is known for her pop-rock songs and this one's no different and that's not bad at all. A lot of people who were looking for her to mature was disappointed when she revealed her first single called Here's To Never Growing Up, a catchy track which is an ode to celebrating or reminiscing the past. She even namedrops Radiohead in the song. In the video, she is seen wearing the attire she used to0 wear during her first era more than a decade ago with her signature necktie over a tanktop and riding skateboards.
She released her second single Rock N Roll, another fun track with an awesome video and reminds people that her music hasn't changed.
Compared with her previous album, this is certainly an improvement. The album is pretty much consistent in putting out strong tracks with a good combination of upbeat to slower-paced tracks despite some weird songs like Hello Kitty which I assume is meant for her huge fanbase in Japan as well as a collaboration with Marilyn Manson on a song called Bad Girl which sounds like she's trying too hard to be hard rock or whatever you call it. There's a particular formula with her style of singing on this album on particular songs that seems to imitate Ke$ha but definitely does a better job at it.
I am definitely buying this album for sure.
Top tracks: 17, Hello Heartache and Bitchin Summer
