Overall, it gives me hope for the future. It's definitely a sing along album and I think the majority of the songs would be better as a live performance (or belted out while in the shower). That said, I think the missing energy is due to the fact that the crowd is missing. It does feel like they've found their feet since their last album (which had some bits I liked, some I didn't, and definitely some problems with the overall flow) but is still missing a bit of that OOR energy that is the reason I love their music. I also feel like the Japanese version flows better. I didn't expect three songs to make such a difference but for me it really did. I feel like the Japanese version is better than the English version. ![]() A decent ending piece but I would probably swap it with Bon Voyage. I don't listen to 5SOS but maybe it sounds like their stuff? I don't know, that's just my random musings which have little to do with the song itself XD. Reminds me a bit of a Marianas Trench song. Take What You Want - I feel like I've heard this song before. Start Again - Has a good energy and is another song that seems like it was made more with a live performance/singalong in mind. They strike me as similar and I think they do the best job of combining OOR's energetic rock with their newer, pop/synth styling. Still, it gets the job done as a filler pop song and balances out the earlier half of the album which fell more on the rock side of things.īon Voyage - This one tied with Bombs Away for my favourite unexpected song after my first listen. Honestly, I don't hate it but I don't particularly like it as a OOR song. One Way Ticket - People seem to be complaining about this one. Avril Lavigne should have been on the English version, though. It over stays it's welcome just a teeny bit but I can live with that. Listen - I was surprised by this one because I quite enjoyed it even though it falls more on the pop-ish side than rock (I should say that I like both in general but I prefer OOR's rock). Still decent and I bet it would be fun in concert. I like it but at the same time I feel like it is missing something. I Was King - I can't make up my mind about this song. It was one of the standouts on my first listen and it stood out even more when I realised what it was replaced by on the English album. (Japanese Ver) Lost in Tonight - Again, I feel like this one should have been on the English version. The song is not terrible but the lyrics make me cringe. (English Ver) American Girls - This song feels like it belongs on a completely different album by a different band. If it weren't for the lyrics it would probably be one of my favourites on the album. ![]() I prefer their higher energy songs but I can still enjoy this one.īedroom Warfare - Got to admit, I love the opening (Am I hearing right that it is 'keep your enemy's clothes' like a play on 'keep your enemies close'?) and I enjoy the song overall. (Japanese Ver.) Always coming back - Feels the closest to their usual rock ballads. Personally I'm not a fan of slower songs so it's not my thing but it is a nice change of pace from the first few songs. (English Ver) Hard to Love - It's nice to see another song that feels like it has more sentiment behind it. My only complaint would be that I wish it had a bit more emotion so it could be something comparable to Liar or Nobody's Home Jaded is by no means a bad song but I prefer 20/20 and it feels more like their usual Japanese stuff. ![]() (Japanese Ver.) 20/20 - I'm surprised this one wasn't on the English version. Good but not my favourite (but it is at a disadvantage since it falls right after We Are). (English Ver) Jaded - Nice to have another song that falls more on the rock than the pop side. It has the most emotion of the title songs and I hope more of their promoted songs are like this in future. Would be epic live but is equally good for listening on your own. This is the song that made me go from anxious to excited. We Are - With each new single released, I was getting more anxious about whether or not I would like the new album. I have mixed feelings because I actually really like it but at the same time it makes me miss their older stuff. Taking Off - Heard this one when it was originally released. I think it does a good job of mixing their old and new styles and has a heavier focus on the drums which I always appreciate. One of my favourites from my first listen, it raised my expectations for the rest of the album. Probably one of my least favourite OOR introductions but it's easy to overlook if the songs are good.īombs Away - This one stood out to me on both versions. ![]() First impressions/comparisons:Īmbitions - Not bad but not great.
