It's really different. It seems to take a bunch of nursery rhymes and add a dark, alternative rock, electronic twist to it.
Here's Nerves: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RPlKQ7afsL8The rest of the songs should be in the suggested videos. I have yet to listen to more songs.
A lot of their fans are saying that this album isn't as good. It's definitely different. From what I've heard so far, it's generally slower. The singing in some songs is WAY more powerful than the ones on their previous albums. They seem to have added more electronic touches, and I haven't heard many instruments from the orchestra playing in the background, which I heard a lot on some of their older songs.
The format of the songs are generally the same. There are really good lyrics that stick in your head without being too pop-ish. The message of the songs are pretty much the same, which is a good sign that the rest of the album I haven't listened to will be awesome. They're not changing their opinions on what they believe it.
One thing that I don't like is that more electronics have been added and less instruments. At some points in their songs, the electronics just totally fit and complete the song. At other points it's just too much and ruins that part of the song. Also, at points the singing just sounds kind of...too different. Like....it doesn't really fit or help the song....
Also...I think my least favorite song from them so far is "Think I'm Sick." It's an example of everything I just listed I didn't like.
What do you think?
