I just picked up the new Theory album from Best Buy (shameless plug) and I listened to it immediately. After the initial listen through I first noticed that the album is devoid of the harder rock tunes from the first two albums. There are a couple of exceptions, but most of the album contains slower rock ballads that are very similar in feel to songs that received mainstream success such as Santa Monica from the second record. Overall the album is solid and the more I listen to it the more I enjoy it. I would definitely recommend this to any fan of mainstream rock as Theory is one of the best out there.
What's great about it: A lot of radio friendly tracks.
