So I gave it another listen.

I can understand the focus of the actual album construction being considerable. Half the tracks though are monotonous and generally speaking underwhelming. Caleb kinda died down. Song writing is ok, took a turn into deep and emotional mostly. But I don't really see them shine compared to their previous form. I still think they lost their impact. Caleb's unique voice in a fun uplift was dazzling, and their southern style gave them a distinct edge. It wasn't a generic style.

Charmer and The Party gets a thumbs up from me. On Call blows.
