Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The walls caved in tonight, and Andrew is telling us about from his point of view.
When "Everything in Transit" came out in 2005, I could not have been more excited. I was a mild fan of "Leaving through the Window" and could not get enough of "North" It was something about hearing Andrew pour out his heart on Jack' Mannequin's first album that dragged me into the league of fandom I am at now though. The songs were more personal, the music more stripped down, It was the perfect album to me. And as soon as I bought it on release day, my new favorite singer was diagnosed with acute ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - He's back and it's just as good as it used to be
Andrew McMahon is possibly one of the most talented composer/musician of this generation. His songs both in Jack's Mannequin as well as in his old band Something Corporate are constantly the work of pure genius and are always unique in their own personal way.

When "Everything In Transit" came out in 2005, it was a huge hit and a lot of people loved it. "The Glass Passenger" was therefore, a highly anticipated album (It was Alternative Press' most anticipated album of 2008). And the bottom ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Genius
Jack's Mannequin has always been one of my favorite bands of all time. I first heard of them on the One Tree Hill soundtrack. The lead singer, Andrew, is a leukemia survivor. In comparison to their first album, The Glass Passenger is definetly a different vibe. Their songs have a lot more depth and the sound is more mellow compared to their first album. I went to the Jack's Mannequin concert soon after the release of this album and the concert was absolutely amazing! One of the best performances ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - If you like Jack's Mannequin...
This is a great album for Andrew's fans. Truly a great record, full of introspective songs of overcoming huge obstacles. A growth of a man. Well done.

Cheers,
Ivan

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - It Lacks Something
I have listened to The Glass Passenger twice, and I feel that there is something missing. Production value is high and overall it sounds well polished, however the songs are just not catchy enough to stick in your head. If you like the prior Jacks Mannequin cd than you will probably enjoy this album, however I feel this album lacks the emotion of earlier releases.
