Pros:

Awesome genre fusions, seamlessly integrating some danceable synths

Vocals are classically brilliant and employ great emotional depth throughout

Highly consistent, with tonnes of memorable melodies, sexy riffs and punchy choruses

Cons:

Ballads can be a tad musically simple at points and often mark the album's weakest moments

Lots of room to take these ideas even further, with greater exploration and experimentation

Best: There Was Sun

Worst: Free If We Want It

8/10 What a surprise, what a treat
