Pros:

Front-loaded with a number of high-energy, memorable singles featuring endlessly catchy hooks and solid, straightforward songwriting

Performances are extremely polished and tight, with lead vocals that display a great emotional range between soft balladry and full-throttle screams

Production is incredibly well-balanced and clean

Cons:

Pacing across the album is highly misguided, bringing the album to a screeching halt for a number of forgettable ballads and never recovering from it

Most songs towards the end are disappointingly played-out and generic, coming across as a poor pastiche of outdated rock trends

Best: Hz. Hyde

Worst: Here's to Us

5/10 Annoyingly inconsistent
