"This is one of the all time great rock albums, certainly in recent years...Everything is quality...This sounds like they recorded it playing live too, really organic. Remarkable! Such beautiful, powerful and dramatic Rock and Roll," said Rockline's Bob Coburn.
Vol. II continues where its 2006 predecessor Vol. I, which spawned two top 20 active rock hits with "Rapture" and "Falls Apart" left off, furthering their signature post-grunge alt-metal sound with a melodic melding of aggression and frustration with soaring harmonies, quieter interludes and intelligent, affecting lyrics. The album was produced by Eric Greedy (Ringo Starr, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, Barbra Streisand), who was also at the helm for Vol. 1.
