    On Safe Travels, even the band's purely fluff cuts are much stronger.

    Throughout the 13 songs (and as many aesthetics) of Safe Travels, the guys prove significantly smoother than their band name, if occasionally academic.

    While Thornewill's and Siegel's songwriting can still come across as overbearing, the potential is always there.

    There will be an audience for bands like Jukebox the Ghost, who at least do this unoffensive brand of power-pap serviceably. But if you're too much of a realist to believe in trick lighting, happy endings or choreographed emotion, Safe Travels will probably leave you wishing for riskier terrain.
