I really like the new album, actually. I didn't at first, but it grew on me in two days. It doesn't sound like their other stuff, which I think shows growth. And Hayley sounds like she's trying different things with her voice. I wish I could hear more of the boys on the album, though. Josh does do backup, so why shouldn't I hear him?
Beyond that, I love it. "All I Wanted" and "The Only Exception" are excellent.
