This newest Pentatonix album is composed of mostly original songs. I have been anxiously awaiting this new album and even though I’ve only had a chance to play at one time through, it is wonderful. It seems like most of the songs highlight Scott’s singing but they do let the other members have some breakthrough moments. Avi Kaplan singing lead in “Light in the hallway” is a real treat and he really exercises his vocal range in this song. All in all I feel like for their first really original effort that it’s excellent and they bring to the party what they always bring, tight harmonies, lots of bounce and the perfect blending of those five very talented people. This is a must-have for Pentatonix for fans!
