Thoughts

This album came out of the blue for me, wasn’t expecting it, and was surprised to see its been more than a decade since the last one from the Matchbox. It was good! I really enjoyed diving back into that modern pop rock guitar sound that is pretty iconic to this band. The only downside is that it’s just more of what they do, this could easily be an album they released in their heyday, but on the flip side, to keep that consistency across a lengthy career and gap is impressive.

Rating: 4 / 5
