For this album I can only say this, Hoobastank is no longer the band that they had to "The Reason". Some do not like that style the other. I belong to the latter. The song, although not of poor quality but there are not that wow factor like "The Reason". It sounds somehow (even after the first preview) already very monotonous and there are few surprises.
Positive:
-The Voice (lead singer Doug) sounds more mature and not as flashy as the previous album.
-Some Very good relaxing songs
-Klingt Total as a better version of "Every Man for Himself"
-gone Gone Gone is my opinion, the best song on the album (Reinhörtipp!)
Negatives:
Not -Clinched the quality of "The Reason"
-Wenig Good rocking songs
-Klingt Total somewhat monotonous and lame
-Kaum Earwigs
