This masterpiece has taken a bit of time to release, but the wait was so worth it. Often, I hear them compared to Nickelback, but make no mistake-there is everything that sets the two bands apart. First off all, the members of this group are very polite, honest, and generous to their fans. The album kicks it off with, "Angel", a song about mysterious beauty, that seems to grasp great power over her heart. "Yesterday's Gone", the second track on the LP, and I have to admit, it's one of my 2 favorites off this journey-filled release. If you preorder/order the album now, from their store (see link below), they'll be even kind enough to sign a copy for you. "Call on Me", if there's the slightest Nickelback comparison, it's this track. Please, don't get me wrong, it flows great....but you're left wondering if the album will be mostly like that. My friends, it's nothing like Nickelback at all, nothing. Their smash hit, "Drunk Enough", is both available as a studio version, and along with, "Yesterday's Gone", they are featured "bonus" tracks. I believe "Drunk Enough" acoustically is incredible! Some solid jams are also to follow, called, "Goodbye To You", Closure", and "Something New". These songs are NOT "fillers" for the album, but they are part of it's beautiful, stunning flow of music. "Unsaid" is crafted well, with guitars taking the music to a whole other level. "Evaporate" and "Somewhere I Belong" are some of my faves because they tear into your emotions, and allow this "angelic" music sink in, and to me, is why music has to breathe. My favorite song from the album is titled, "Too Late". This song holds meaning to me in ways, flows really well, and allows us fans to be able to call this band a force to be reckoned with in 2013!
RATING: 9.5/10
