To be honest, IMO the best record they ever put out was "Lovehatetragedy". On that one they seemed to take a few more chances on things and it definately showed in that the music was much more fresh and adventurous. With bad sales they have no kicked the formulaic rock back in gear for the last two, its a shame really.
Wow, okay... after quite a few listens (I mean alot of listens), the album has grown on me and is neck and neck with Breaking Benjamin's Phobia for best album of the year. S.O.S., Forever, World Around You, My Heart is a Fist, Fire, To Be Loved are all ace tracks, and S.O.S. has become my personal song of the year.
