DavidMJul 27, 2005Not bad...but plays it oh so safe, even for pop. Good for neutral moments when you don't care what you're listening too, but hardly something you'll turn to for inspiration. Simple in concept and execution and seriously overrated considering the many fine, superior albums it's presently rated higher than on megacritic.
