Sehr interessantes Werk, ziemlich vielseitig und abwechslungsreich. Schöne Stimme, gute Melodien, gefällt mir sehr gut!

I purposely listened to "Aim and Ignite" first so this album could disappoint me, but it actually didn't! That said, it isn't as fun (herr derr) as their previous album, but it's rather excitingly produced and has plenty of strong tracks. 4.5

Excellent Album! A very solid production, which each track being as anthem-ic as each other, and with a Queen feeling to all. Just the intro is a bit quirky. Although it is hard to compare, these guys are basically the modern day Queen (just beating Muse to it).

Some Nights ******
We Are Young ******
Carry On *****
It Gets Better *****
Why Am I The One *****
All Alone ******
All Alright ******
One Foot ******
Stars *****
Out On The Town *****
Average - 5.5

The vocals, the sounds effects, and especially the backing music for each and every track is just flawless, and very awesome. One of the best this year!

Da bin ich jetzt doch ziemlich enttäuscht. Nach den zwei starken Singles hätte ich VIEL mehr erwartet. Der Großteil des Albums bewegt sich im Bereich zwischen 3 oder 4, also dort, wo sich Belanglosigkeit und Nettigkeitsfaktor guten Tag sagen.
Ab und zu blitzt das Potential der Gruppe durch, welches insbesondere aus der tollen Stimme von Nate Ruess resultiert, aber meiner Meinung wird es nicht voll ausgeschöpft. Es wird zwar da und dort ein wenig experimentiert und Einiges klingt durchaus interessant, aber nicht immer gelingen die Experimente. Als bleibt auch für das dritte Album Luft nach oben.

Nachdem die beiden Hits in meiner Jahreswertung gelistet sind (We are young #7 und Some nights #15), musste ich mir jetzt mal das Album zu Gemüte führen.
Hier sind in allen Songs Qualitäten und eingängige Melodien zu verzeichnen.

I like the production and most of the vocals but there are too many let downs here - especially with the use of autotune and some unnecessarily lengthy tracks. I like the heavy drums of most of the tracks here, and the anthemic choruses, as well as the way that Fun. are able to change tempo easily and make it sound normal. I liked Why Am I The One and All Alone as well as the singles so this is a 4* for me. Decent stuff I guess. I would say avoid 'It Gets Better' and 'Stars' though.

Excellent album, every track is very enjoyable and I just love the high drama this album creates. I'm yet to listen to Aim & Ignite, but I definitely want to after how good this is!

The first half of the album exceeded my expectation while the second half was just disappointing for me.
