The variety of genres here impresses the most; as Bruno gets even more adept in the studio, he’s learning that a minimalist, acoustic-led song like “Seven Sticks Of Dynamite” can be more effective than a cut boasting 64 tracks.

AWOLNATION come back with an under the radar 3rd album, and it might just be their best yet! Definitely some of Aaron Bruno's finest work!
