    First of all, you should understand that this is not a rock music at all! And I usually don't like that "bubble-gum-pop" genre. BUT I just can't stop listening to this album! Sometimes I listened to this full album several times at a time on repeat. Catchy melodies and texts, great vocals, all just light and unobtrusive. Absolutely love it!

    But you should know what to expect from it: this is pop music. Some man even said about it in the old-school-house-kind song "Press Rewind": "this is pop music. we write and record pop music".

    Wilson sounds overly smooth and croon-y on "We Stay Together," while on "Hole In My Soul" the group's cartoonish attempt at modern sounds is strung together with a sickly thread of saccharine.

    It’s not that it’s terrible--and credit should go to them for being so adventurous--but this might just be a makeover too far.
