I was never much of a fan of Blaze. I always thought that it dragged out a little, and besides a few impressive standout tracks, it was quite bland.

Resolve is a step up most definately, but it still lacks character. There are a lot more songs which have their own feel to them, much like those off Let's Talk About Feelings. But I can't help but feel Lagwagon are trying too hard to come up with diverse riffs. Songs like "Automatic" and "Virus" feel a little gimmicky, even though both are fun to listen to.

6/10 from me. I think Lagwagon made a huge comeback after Blaze, even though this album hasn't been that well commercialized. Still, they can and have certainly done better.
