Well...I guess I don't know them that well then. I still like the album tho.

15 is the only thing that could be salvaged from this album

Eh, 15 is one of the worse songs. Dejalo being the worst.

I'm a Rilo Kiley fan. Not a fan of this album.

I can't say it's a bad album. It's just extremely disappointing.

I've never heard any of their old music, but I bought this album just at random cause I had money and I quite liked it.

Well, it appears that I am in the minority here, but I had heard only two of their previous efforts, and enjoyed pieces of both, but I really enjoyed this one all the way through. I don't know if it is because I was raised on polished, sensible Pop music, but I enjoy the influences of Fleetwood Mac that can be found on this record.

Just because something has high production values, does NOT make it crap.

You're right, what makes it crap is the fact it's generic garbage you could hear on any contemporary pop station.
