This is unfortunately the type of boy band
pop metal I really hate. The biggest self-deception here would be if the band
actually thinks they are metal. This is just slick pop coated with some
distorted guitars as an excuse to try to appeal to a metal audience. Even Nickelback are closer to Pantera
in comparison. They check all the boxes for prime time radio play and young
girl attraction. Sweet, poppy lead vocals, self-adhesive hooks and all the
right effects in the right places. They can surely go a long way in the right
circles, but for me it goes straight in the bin.
