I agree with what you're saying. I still think Native is my favorite, but OMM reaaaaallllly delivered. I think the album really appeases every type of OR fan: the acoustic alternative singer songwriter pop rock DOL, the more experimental or unique-sounding WU, the folk soulful pop rock Native, and some slight electronic (but it's never too much or overwhelming.
Imo they delivered a perfect blend of signature OR songs that have just been evolved or updated to adapt to their current style. It's really fantastic

I heard the full album for the first time this week and it's really great. I still like Native more because of its sound, but OMM is not far behind. My main problem is that the albums is too long and it drags a bit, but all the songs actually fit. My favorites are Lets Hurt Tonight, Oh My My, Kids, Better, NbHD, Whreevr I Go and future gospel smash Human.

I mean, certain songs on this record are GOLD.
Heaven, Choke, Let's hurt tonight, Future Looks good and KIDS are giving me LIFE, literally.
I enjoyed NATIVE a little LESS, after a few listen.
Let's see if this has replay value.

So I'll hit the lights and you lock the doors
We ain't leaving this room 'til we bust the mold
Don't walk away, don't roll your eyes
They say love is pain, well darling, let's hurt tonight

like all their albums, this have fillers, like Choke, Born, Fingertips, All These Things, Colors, & The Less I Know.
but overall, it's a good album with great songs. best songs are Better and A.I.

what?
lmfao not even close with the two bolded. i understand Born and ATT, even though i still like them, but Choke and Fingertips are two of the best on the album, and two universally loved tracks.
despite the album's length, i don't really see much filler besides ATT and (maybe) Born, even thuogh i think Born is underrated

too bad it's a hideous cover i mean yay congrats!
i just wish they weren't on the cover. no offense to them, it just looks cheap and out-of-place. i love their albums, 'cause they're all cool, artistic designs, but this one is just basic. oh well

I mean its the only OneRepublic album avaliable in Brazil.
I hate having to wait a month for an imported album.
I wish there was a different less ugly deluxe cover.

I blind bought this album today
I've never bought an album by them before, so this is new to me. All The Right Moves + Secrets and even Apologize were the only singles I really loved, while I enjoyed their other singles (but they weren't really "amazing").
7 tracks in and this album is so good! It's up in my ball park. I was going through the Top 200 on iTunes and came across Kids and before I bought that single, I checked out their album and it actually shocked me how catchy it was.
I'll see how this album turns out.

The sound on this album is very similar to M83.
I'm on 'Better' right now and it sounds like Twenty One Pilots.
At Target you can get the exclusive deluxe version for $8 right now! It's on sale, 60% off. I am so glad I decided to buy it today  What a deal!

Finished the album. Not one bad track! I enjoyed the whole damn thing.
This album has influences from Coldplay, Hurts, M83, and well Twenty One Pilots [Better]. Some of the tracks that are very electronic remind me of another artist like in Oh My My, All These Things and even NbHD, but I can't pinpoint exactly what influenced those tracks.
The track Born, with the autotuned part ending (along with Heaven I think) reminded me of another artist as well.
For a first OneRepublic album purchase I'm proud to stan finally. This album is GOLD. I might even say it's better than Glory. :x
Anyone reading this, do yourself a favor and BUY it.
