Working again with producers and Mike Flynn , the band, as detailed on Wikipedia , expanded their sound.
Returning producer Aaron Johnson (who also helmed How to Save a Life ) polishes every surface to a mirror shine. The good news: Slade’s piano rings like a bell, and the backing harmonies are immaculate. The bad news: The album suffers from the loudness war. Tracks clip, there is almost no audible dynamic range, and everything sits squarely in the middle of the stereo field. The raw, roomy sound of a live piano is replaced by a sampled, sterile perfection. This makes the quieter moments feel clinical rather than fragile, and the louder moments feel exhausting rather than cathartic.
The Fray's music was inescapable in television and film during this period:
In 2009, The Fray was at a crossroads. Having achieved mainstream success with their debut album "The Fray" in 2005, the band was looking to explore new sounds and push the boundaries of their music. The result was a year of experimentation, growth, and creativity that would ultimately shape the band's future.
Notable songs from this period included the Grammy-nominated "Never Say Never" and their interpretation of Kanye West's "Heartless" .
