%) VISIT AMAZON.COM'S PAGE | Editorial Reviews : Florida's megaplatinum matchbox twenty prove with their third album to be far more versatile than expected, comfortably outlasting the predictions of naysayers. Reuniting with producer Matt Serletic, the quintet takes credible swings at gospel ('Downfall' features a choir), Traveling Wilburys-type twang ('All I Need'), and big-arena rock with 'Disease,' cowritten by singer Rob Thomas and Mick Jagger and winkingly recalling Thomas's star turn with Carlos Santana on 'Smooth.' Pedal-steel great Greg Leisz spruces up several tracks, notably the tearjerker 'Hand Me Down,' while producer and keyboardist Serletic and percussionist Paul Doucette sprinkle instrumental pixie dust. More Than You Think You Are isn't likely to appease critics, who have consistently accused matchbox twenty of yelling when a whisper would do, but fans of the group are certain to dig these panoramic songs, each drawn in broad, vivid strokes.
Buyer Reviews : after a decent sophomore attempt, matchbox twenty comes roaring back with a 12-track cd that is reminiscent of tabitha's secret and YOSLY, filled with rob thomas's universal lyrics, some great guitar work and an overall sense that it is starting to find its authentic voice. it may not be the best album, but it is their more mature. thomas has blossomed as a song writer, lead guitarist kyle cook has grown by leaps and bounds, breaking away from his strictly pop play and drummer paul douchette wrote the song that finally exposed the essence of the band in 'could i be you.' so, what we have here is a cd full of intimate rock songs any matchbox twenty fan would be crazy not to own!
