Pleasantly Surprised!

I've never really gotten into Shawn McDonald to be honest. Although I've only heard a handful of songs from his previous two albums, his sound was pretty bland to me. I normally like more upbeat, catchy stuff, but his music kinda bored me. When "Roots" became the NRT Preview, I thought what the heck and listened to it. I was pleasantly surprised! The music on here is a lot catchier than his previous work. The more upbeat songs are my favorites, like: Clarity, Roots, Captivated, Shadowlands, and Greed. The song "Light" has awesome lyrics, but a rather bland melody. Although there are those good songs, there are some pretty boring songs on here as well. Overall, Shawn's third album is pretty good---I definitely didn't expect it to be this good!
