Finally heard this. First, the most notable thing is song length. Each song is 2-3 minutes and it helps a lot. The songs are direct and to the point with choruses usually repeating only once. Second, the music has a folkier feel and combined with the new singer's deeper voice seems to work well. Third, no silly reggae sounding 'ballads' as on the last 2 or 3 albums.
I'd go with 7.5/10. Their best since Elegy.
