I just recently got "Hello Hurricane" as a gift from my brother and am really enjoying the album. A great sound and wonderfully-crafted lyrics that resound with themes of hope and love.
I'll check it out. Normally I'm not big on that style of rock, but I used to play a few covers of theirs live with a church-related youth group back when I was in HS, so I have a bit of a soft spot for them.
The new album has a very different sound, IMO. Check it out and let me know what you think. A lot of people will discount the genre, but being positive isn't such a bad thing, as long as the music is good!
