    This band stays active! Here's 3 brand new songs on disc. "Whipping Boy" sounds the strongest of the three, with its throbbing bass line and beefy low end. Grunge-like with pop sensibilities. "Opinion" is more laid-back with an organ sound. Imagine Hootie singing an Alice In Chains ballad. The chorus focuses on the "Liar, Lunatic, or Lord" argument. "Sea of Glass" finds the band a bit too moody and mellow for me, but it's mostly the vocals that sound tired to these ears.
