    Like Blunt, the Script trundle steadily down rock's middle road. Unlike him, they seem to be enjoying the ride.

    Swamped by the same safe, repetitive, and unadventurous production, the majority of the ten tracks are indistinguishable from one another, making Science & Faith a solid but pedestrian and uninspiring affair.
