Just listened to the full album.. it sounds very OneRepublic influenced. It's great!

The highlights IMO

Breathe
Show 'Em (What You're Made Of)
Make Believe
Love Somebody
One Phone Call
Feels Like Home
Soldier

It's out already?

Was released in some countries on iTunes, I believe since I have an iTunes+ copy.

I deleted a few songs, but this is my current tracklist I kept:

01 IN A WORLD LIKE THIS
02 PERMANENT STAIN
03 BREATHE
04 SHOW 'EM
05 MAKE BELIEVE
06 LOVE SOMEBODY
07 ONE PHONE CALL
08 FEELS LIKE HOME
09 SOLDIER
10 LIGHT ON

Bahh can't wait to listen!

*listening to it now*

As usual, BSB didn't disappoint. Much better than their last 'urban' influenced album. Make Believe is a wonderful stand out track. They need to try and license that out for TV shows, movie trailers and commercials.

I will have to give this a proper listen, most of my music has been dominated by females, but I have been letting the blokes back in lately. I have only listened to a few tracks, but have so far enjoyed New Kids on the Block (10) a lot more. I listened to Jealous and Remix (I Like The) and thought they were a step-up coming from a boyband/manband. So I don't know what is the better album, but New Kids have to the edge so far...but I will give this a fair listen before deciding since everybody here is giving it glowing reports.

I just listened to the previews and it definately makes me want to listen to the full album when it comes out. The first couple songs had me worried the album was going to be monotonous but as it went on there were some songs that stood out. Stand outs for me: Breathe, Madeleine, Show Em(What You're Made Of), Try, Trust Me, and Soldier. Itunes udate:

BSB is going for a very adult sound. They played a lot of instruments on this album and tried to craft songs with big, addictive choruses. It builds on what they tried with Never Gone and perfects it.
