Genre: SynthRock

Five Minutes
So. The U2 meets The Alarm with synths is back. I liked Intimacy. I loved Promises. This one?
It’s damn good. Even though the songs are all a bit long. Even good ones like “Fool for You” (which sound s a LOT like Jack Antonoff’s Bleachers) and “If That Wasn’t Love” feel like they are stretching when the songs clock in a reasonable times.
I like this album but not as much as the last. It started out promising but soon began to feel like Deja Vu. And it all wearily runs out of steam on the title track which sounds like 1982ish Gary Numan.
