Pros:
Infectiously catchy in its melodies and sing-along hooks, making this a consistently feel-good listen
Performances, especially in the surprisingly youthful vocals, are high-energy and fun
Production suits the genre and style, balancing each layer well
Cons:
Songwriting is rather simplistic and elementary, often sticking to rudimentary progressions and power chord passages
Feels very safe and sterile, lacking the edge that once defined the band
Lyrical content is often surface-level at best, with attempts at commentary feeling half-baked
Best: Father to a Son
Worst: Corvette Summer
4/10 They've released worse
