Bland, inoffensive, radio-friendly alt-pop. If you’re looking for the next Shawn Mullins or Fastball, look no further. But then, why would you be? Seriously, I’ve listened to this record a half-dozen times, and still can’t remember any one track over another. It just does nothing for me. So I’m sure it’ll be a huge pop hit.
