(3 out of 5 stars)

"When The Audition came out with Controversy Loves Company the music was a hit due to the inspired musings of the lyrics, and their second album Champion had this undescribably catchy musicality that had you singing and dancing along with every song, but their third attempt is definitely a miss in both of these categories. This album is filled with 10 unimaginative, uninspired, dime-a-dozen relationship songs with lyrics that any third grader could have come up with ("I feel my temperature rising for you/There's just no way to describe it, It's true"... or the sickening lyrics from It's Gonna Be Hard (When I'm Gone): "It's gonna be hard when I'm gone/I'll take this time,To sit down and write you a song/With simple words and melody,To explain exactly what you mean to me/Oh, Amy") Most of the songs sound the same to me, but this is most likely due to the same theme in every single one, and clocking in at only 33 minutes the CD starts over before you have time to really get into the groove of the music. With the first two albums from The Audition you'll find it hard not to sing along and dance, but this album is hard just to listen to and you probably won't WANT to sing along with most of the songs. Although the lyrics are crappy and most of the songs seem the same, the musicality of The Audition is still preserved in this CD and that may be its saving grace. The songs are up-beat and you can actually groove to some of them and that's where The Audition has always shined, however, there's nothing really new here like there was in the transition from Controversy to Champion. I give it 3 stars and I think that's a very fair mark. Fans of The Audition will like this CD, but for someone just starting to listen to this band I would recommend one of their first two CDs to start out with. For me, I'm looking forward to their next release where hopefully the testosterone levels will decrease and the songs will start to have meaning once again."
