Aaron Lewis가 컨트리음악에 빠진 후 만든 Staind의 6집. 결론을 말하자면 매우 실망이 크다. 3집에서의 변화를 기점으로 전작까지 이어지던 (그나마)Alternative 같았던 느낌이 많이 배제되었다. 한층 부드러워지고 접근하기 쉬워졌다한들 Country/Jazz풍은 오히려 Staind의 정체성을 해쳤다. Tangled Up in You같은 곡들을 듣자니 3집의 Epiphany에서 느껴지던 Staind만의 서정성이 사라져서 매우 아쉽다.
희망적인 가사와 밝은 멜로디가 대부분이지만 프론트맨의 고집이 너무나도 많이 반영된 작품이기에 차라리 Aaron Lewis의 솔로앨범으로 냈으면 어땠을까 생각하게 만든다.
