nothing stands out about them, to me atleast. What Songs should I be checking out, because I didn't really like what I heard all that much.

I can understand people who say nothing really stands out about them in particular, but I do like the album a lot. It's not revolutionary or going to change your life or anything, but it's a good listen. My favorite songs are "Time is Running Out", "Hysteria", and a little farther back, "Stockholm Syndrome" and "Butterflies and Hurricanes". "Apocalypse Please" sets up nicely for "Time is Running Out". The rest is mostly filler-ish, which I guess indicates that maybe I shouldn't have called it a great album, but it does set a decent mood. I like it.

I'd suggest listening to it as an album instead of track-by-track. "Time is Running Out" and "Hysteria" are single-type songs (and are indeed the two singles), but the rest sounds better as part of the whole. I guess I'm more of the type to listen to albums than singles, though, so whatever that means.

I do think they could've done better with the production of the album.
