There are 22 songs on this bloated project. 22! I would say I’ve relistened to maybe 5 of them since it’s came out. A brutal slog of an album, from a band that’s been an easy listen in the past. I think bones is better but I don’t know if that is saying much, hoping and releases 2026 and beyond can turn back the clock a bit.
I came for some nostalgia with Breakeven. Wow this album sucks. Corny writing, hit or big miss vocals, average instrumentation = bad music. Don’t let nostalgia cloud your judgement on this one
I get it, they’re the Nickleback of pop but this album is easily their best work. It’s solid jazz/funk pop, Harder to Breathe always hits and the other hits of this album are just as good.
