    Often, maybe too often, the band’s zeal to call bullshit makes for metaphors and images that push too far.

    Long time fans are going to lap this up while newcomers will likely be wondering where this band has been all their lives.

    It’s true that a band can only write about the same topics for so long, and it is nice to see Bonnette taking his lyrical approach in a new direction, but the lack of that intensely personal touch unfortunately makes the songs on Christmas Island far less relatable than the band's past catalogue.
