2.5 averageRobbit | May 1st 16

WITHOUT LOVE was a major letdown for me after their highly promising debut. It's likable
enough pop-metal on the surface, but there isn't a whole lot of substance beneath the glossy
production. If you're going to make a good pop/glam metal record, then you should have plenty
of memorable hooks in store. Sadly, there are very few of those to be found here. Their
tribute to vinyl - "Bombastic Plastic" - is probably the standout track for me. The title
track is a runner-up, but not quite good enough to my personal favorites playlist. The power
ballad "Miss Mystery" was also released as a single, but comes off a bit cheesy and wasn't
particularly special. Some listeners may enjoy this for the positive, sunny day at the beach
vibes and aren't as fickle about the songwriting as am. Still, I would direct people towards
their debut album for a stronger example of Black 'N Blue's music.
