i think bounce potentially could have been amazing...i love the heavier sound and i think they have some great songs in there. undivided is a classic, but i feel there arnet many other which excel past the 'good song' label...im a big fan of story tellers and am so happy that joey is getting alot of 'live' time..that and RSOW where very welcome on the album for me. i just feel however, that the lack of edge on the solos doesnt help. only undivided and RSOW have decent solos i reckon. the distance obviously had its solo taken away and ready for the live arena, which i think was a wrong decison in truth cos the album version sounds tame with that killer solo. i love the vocals and harmonies on this album, that was a great step from crush, but for me, too many ballads, and fillers, and bad song selection veto the album from being very very good.
