This is pretty poor, and that's coming from someone who has adored (and 5.0ed this band) for years. Way more electronic & hip-hop leaning than Vol 1, but at the expense at most of the super fun hooks. Some of these tracks are an absolute mess. "Idol" has this odd dubstep chorus that just 8 years too late, and "Monsters" I guess is their attempt at grabbing some of the emo-rap scene but the flows are simply some of the worst in their discography. After one playthrough, it becomes super evident why a remixed version of a track from Vol 1 was the lead single for this release: the tracks here are nowhere near as strong.

With part 1, I was impressed to see how they actually matured it felt like a band going in the right direction, and then they pull this... There is no way nice to say it this is absolutely horrid. These Rap verses are so predictable, corny, and outright baffling bad that it makes Thousand Foot Krutch look like Kendrick Lamar. Like it gets "Anderson. pack 2016 Freshmen XXL freestyle cipher bad". There is even a track that not so blatantly rips of Macolmore of all people. The musical side is the band chasing the current arena rock trend which like everything else in the trend, does not sound distinct at all, it's just another group playing follow the leader. There are 2 reasons this is not getting a 1. first is this is not worse than their debut album ( I would say they are about the same) and second, their is alot of nu-metal that is still much worse. make no mistake avoid this like the landmines they rap about.
