Apologies, but whilst various things said here are appropriate and correct, some of the comments made on this album are unfair
To start, perhaps you should not be so fast to gloss over the meaning this band are actually evoking in their work, various songs are very consistent with the ideas of having faith and keeping strong no matter the situation and I know they have personally helped me. I do recognise these ideas are hardly groundbreaking, but they deserve more credit than given here.
Also, as a side note, the band did not rely on fancy connections to gain the small success they have. Their singer, Alex, gave a demo to Panic! at the Disco which they paid attention to due to it's catchy and talented contents, suggesting that just perhaps, the boys have attained what they have thus far on their own merit. (And is it so wrong that others in the industry and on their record label chose to help promote them? Not really.)
