    I was expecting much after the last album which I really liked but this is just dismal - it's like Foreigner gone wrong, 80's soft rock. Really disappointed.

    They picked the wrong titlesong. "Sea Fog" would have been a more appropriate title. Chaplin sounds like he could use some Zoloft. The whole band sound like they're just going through the motions. A big disappointment

    Strangeland isn't much of a diversion from their fame-bringing formula. [Jun 2012, p.105]

    While this album will neither shock nor rewrite opinion, there is no denying 'Strangeland' is solid enough.

    Another accomplished, warm, and welcoming record, one whose open-hearted generosity of spirit ultimately proves hard to resist.
