So as of this morning you can listen to the new O.A.R. album All Sides over at VH1’s The Leak. On the whole I like the album initially much more than the last. Overall it’s a lot more mellow, but not as production heavy as Stories of a Stranger.
This Town
Yeah, it’s a little cheesy in the studio, but it sounds really good live and gets the crowd moving.
Shattered
Lead single. Meh. Pretty bland. Not looking forward to this being played every show.
Whatever Happened
Was so excited for this track from the live version last year, but Marc made some pretty significant lyric changes. Not sure if I’m digging it. Sounds good musically.
Try Me
Sounded decent.
One Day
Great song. Catchy.
Living In the End
Love it. Came out great. Should be huge at shows.
Something Coming Over
4 years in the making and it finally made a studio cut. Sounds really good.
What Is Mine
Sounds old-ish. Nice little groove to the song.
Dinner Last Night
Hmm, 7 years in the making? I was at one of the few shows this was played back in 2001 and then in 2006 they debuted a newer version which sounds pretty similar to this studio cut. I like the new bridge.
The Fallout
One of my least favorites of the new songs played live, but this actually sounds really good in the studio.
The Gift
Sounded good from a first listen.
War Song
Really liked this one after one play.
On My Way
I was really surprised to see this was actually “Maybe It’s Just Me” reworked with some different pieces. Glad to see it made the album cause I liked that one.
