Agree......

Statistically, there can't be zero ballads.

What does that even mean?

I mean that all of their albums had some ballads in them (even HAND if Wildflower is ballad). So this new album will likely have at least one (not zero).

English is my second language, sorry! :p

Even if for me it is zero, I know that for a lot of people HAND could count as having 3 ballads, welcome, wildflower and I am.

I just can't look at I Am as a ballad. I can't. It's slower in tempo but not far off from a lot of songs. Some even say In These Arms is a ballad. It's all subjective I guess.

ITA isn't a ballad? I always though it was, because it's all about love, has a nice melody, etc. I guess there's not the single one definition of "ballad" out there ;-)

ITA is a power ballad to me - the chorus has energy, but the verses are definitely slow and delicate.

I Am is not a ballad at all IMO.

I don't consider I Am a ballad either. These Open Arms, Wildflower, Welcome and Bells of Freedom could be considered as such a thing, though.

About Welcome and Bells of Freedom, are not love ballads, but are ballads.

Reading that Phil has only played on 4 out of (a possible) 12 songs has me a bit worried.

Im hoping that doesnt mean 4 thumping tracks and 8 songs like Fingerprints or Blind love. If it does me and this bands new materiel are over!

I remember JBJ saying HAND was a real rock album and I thought 3/4 of that album was really boring.

Fingers crossed for a thumping "we dont run" type album.
