Title: Just not the same
Review: Wow, I bought the Voices the day it came out and needless to say I'm really not that impressed. Sure most of the songs aren't bad, but if I were to make a "greatest hits" compliation of their Stories and Alibis (and even West for Wishing), I wouldn't include any of the new material on it. You grew popular from the sounds of Stories and Alibis, then why change? Its like the old saying goes, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it". I'm deeply saddened by this as one of my other favorite bands, Boys Night Out released a new album this past summer and they changed a lot as well. Although I like the BNO cd much more than I like the new MR cd. I hope this doesn't continue to be a trend (like when Senses Fail releases a new album in the next few months or so). All in all, I would recommend this album. But, in my opinion, all the songs sound somewhat similar and it is a step backwards for MR.
Is the review positive or negative?
