Personal Opinion:

Honestly, I don’t know this band that much, the only two songs I know well are “Ordinary World” which is a cover of an 80’s band “Duran Duran” which at the same time is my favorite songs from “Duran Duran” and “Release the Panic” that is from their latest album, I’ve heard more of their songs today while exploring and learning from their history and they have a couple of interesting and good songs especially in my opinion “Pieces” which is a very strong and powerful song. So in conclusion I think this is a pretty nice band with a variety of songs from soft, emotional and much harder rock.
