    I enjoyed a lot this album. The pop isn't that great but isn't that worse. Is the first time that I heard them and won't be the last one. =) "Unavoidable" is the best for me.

    While Glenn gamely belts out every song like it's a Broadway audition, his band's appeal remains some distance short of universal. [Aug 2014, p.111]

    Nothing here is as relentlessly hooky as 2012's "Everybody Talks," but its bubbly propulsion informs the cheeky "I Love You (But I Hate Your Friends)" and swooning "Teenager in Love." That mix of energy and insight makes Psychology a 40-minute master class in the kind of pop that moves both the body and the brain.

    Pop Psychology opens with the biggest, shiniest songs he's come up with, each taking on a slippery aspect of post-modern romance.
