"If It Happens" is a real banger. The album is the best when they don't force the fake Depeche Mode accents.

^^Those passages didn't quite strike me as impressions of Depeche Mode, as opposed to a general homage to the trade mark vocal style in gothic "insert genre".

The album's sound is quite an original one.
