The Evan Anthem's sophomore release Sens features the foursome rocking with a fresh sound that is current with some cool retro touches (jangly guitar/reverb-laden piano/keyboard flourishes). Sens is a solid modern rock album with beefy production by Mark Lee Townsend (Relient K) and a bevy of catchy tunes with enough musical twists and turns to provide much replay potential. The two vocalists (Derek Kern and Matt Miller) have a wide range that adds drama and harmony to the album. The whole CD is enthralling, with several standout cuts (including the oh-so-cool titled "High-Strung Poets") and at least one instant classic (the anthemic "Half Ready to Half Believe").
