This announcement can be so not necessarily confirm. Although the new album comes less gloomy and relaxed, yet lags the comparison with "Into" because this album was nevertheless marked by ohrwurmartigem rock, in which the guitar sound clearly excelled. "The Rasmus" however, leaves a smoother rail, join the guitar and bass frequently in the background and are dominated by synthesizers. So the new album leans rather to Lauris solo album to what reveals vocal Also at the Lyrics and Lauris, which strikes more than previous albums, the higher tones and gentler and less smoky comes along. However, it has a significantly protruding drums that lacked yes Lauris solo album, where such was represented electronically. All in all, we thus saw soundwise a mixture of the previous album "Black Roses" and Lauris solo album "New World". The result can be heard quite where it at one or the other song multiple listening needs, to find yourself in, but partly because a strong pop track was taken, so you did not know of The Rasmus. So sound songs like "Save Me Once Again", "You Do not See Me" and "I'm a Mess" very afterPop what not has to be bad, but just strange (he). There are also examples like "Someone 'Gonna Light You Up" or "Friends Do not Do Like That", where the guitars are more present again. Even "Stranger", "It's Your Night" and "Sky" know quite convincing.
All in all, results in a more relaxed sound, which comes less gloomy and all the more soulful and also has its charms, if you do not stiffened to classic rock and is a little more open. After several listens I like the album more and more, despite initial skepticism, and so the album is still a decent, though, and I would want a somewhat harder line and less ballads for the sequel, but that's a matter of taste.
