    Its freshness proves that ten years after their 2004 breakthrough, the band is as lively as ever and, in some sly subtle ways, better than ever too.

    Revelation doesn’t exemplify perfection, but it does show great conception and the accompanying execution of that conception at its finest.

    The electro thread of Wal-Mart bouncer "There's Always Tomorrow" and formulaic struts "Don't Walk Away" and "Can't Slow Down" try too hard, but the balance of Revelation relaxes and, in that down-home groove, thrives.

    Revelation continues to tow that tradition, with every song providing different twists at every juncture.

    There’s an identity crisis in the way the band veers radically from hard-edged rock to slick, superficial pop. There are too many lyrical cliches.
