As far as I can tell, I'm pleased with this album and they manage to bring it a step higher than the previous effort, 'Pop Media', although still two steps behind the great 'USA/UK' of 2008. The new singer, Anthony Fedorov, fits very well here, he did a nice job, and the strength of this band is to create such an irresistible catchy rock tracks especially when you crank up the opening, 'We Live Life Young', what an amazing song and melody, this is definitely the best track of the album!

Second best should go to 'Take My Heart (Do It All Again)' and third place was rewarded to the eleventh track, 'I'll Be Waiting' - a very nice mid-tempo tune with a perfect chorus. Other great songs like 'Pages', Power of Love', and 'Live On' worth checking out, and the rest actually are good too, except for couple of weaker songs like 'I Begin Again' or 'Why Ya Gotta Be Like That', ain't bad at all but need some push-push in the chorus department.

Production is pretty good, very strong musicianship, and although I'm afraid the replay value fall a bit because some part of this sounds quite samey and too formulaic for some, but of course, why fix if it ain’t broke?. Good thing is they seem to move forward to the right road and sadly I recently found out that the relation of the band with Anthony didn’t last and hopefully the next album will be even better with an even better singer.
