One of the unexpected hits of last year was Augustana's 'Boston'. With video's on youtube being uploaded on kid's attempting to do what Augustana does best. Although this album is more diverse than the first, it seems that they are trying way too hard rather than just letting the music flow. Although you got to give them A for effort because of track's trying to be the next 'Boston' ('Sweet And Low'). It seems they still haven't put that song behind them just yet. If you are to pick up this record it will just show potential and nothing more.
Rating: Lyrics: 29/40 (Strongest part of the album)
Tunefulness: 32/50 (Trying way too hard)
Originality: 2/10 (It been done way better...)
Overall: 63/100 (I expect better things from these guys next time around)
