    This second album us far from flawless, with too many songs outstaying their welcome. [Sep 2013, p.98]

    Their songwriting is fantastic and the melodies are extremely catchy but overall it feels like a lack of effort--a cheap gimmick--especially when they’ve clearly got the chops to pull off something greater.

    Every song on this album could stand to be tightened. Most could lose a verse or two, and a lot of them would sound much better if they were played faster.
