O.A.R. - King - Alternative - CD

O.A.R. streamlined their sound on 2008's All Sides, downplaying the frat boy anthems and reggae rhythms that launched their career in favor of a slick pop/rock approach. Released three years later, King finds the group reconvening the production team that turned All Sides into a Top 40 hit. The songs are more laid-back this time around, more reminiscent of Dave Matthews than the Snow Patrol epics that filled All Sides. ~ Andrew Leahey, Rovi
