Okay... So I like it, the new album, I mean.

Come on, Jay-Z does the spoken-word introduction.
It's gotta be good.
It sounds a lot like their last album, but you can tell they're evolving.

While it does have a one-line hook in every song, there are quite a few good one-liners.
"Wouldn't you rather be a widow than a divorcee?"
"I thought I loved you, but it was just how you looked in the light."
"One day we'll get nostalgic for disaster."
"Thanks for the memories even though they weren't so great."

I think there are a couple of songs that sound quite a bit like Panic! in that extremely produced, borderline over-produced way.
See "Thnks fr th Mmrs,"
"The (After) Life of the Party,"
and "Bang the Doldrums" (this one, especially).

But overall, I think it's a good pop punk album.
I think you'd like it, especially if you liked their last release.
