"Pulses" and "Drifter" were the ones that stood out to me from the concert. Look out for those two. :)

Sounds fucking fantastic. I only played several seconds from each song, because I want to buy the album next week and be "surprised."

YES NICK! So glad that it's no longer Amy with background vocals and harmonies provided by Nick. My favorite song so far is Hate to Love You.

So many good melodies and production elements brought down by super-corny word choices and vocal delivery, but not bad.

Why are they not huge? All 3 videos have been great and the songs are stellar, seriously wondering why they can't seem to get another hit now. Is it just Epic's sucky promotion?

So there's a new video with the long awaited shirtless Nick. He should have been shirtless for the whole video, tbh. That song is quite a cute bop.

I'm shocked by how much I enjoyed listening to this album; it's so much less obnoxious and more cohesive than I expected. The only song I might skip in the future is "Gasoline."
The dubstep-lite on a lot of the tracks is a nice touch.

Their album is ok for me. My favorites were I Want It All (which I've always loved), Night Like This, and Gasoline. NLT should definitely be a single if they get another one. Aside from some of the corniness, my only real complaint is Amy's breathing. Like Neon Love sounds like a good record, but I literally can't hear anything over the gasping! So distracting!

I'm in love with this album! The front half is a little better than the latter but that's typically the case with pop records I've noticed. "Pulses" & "Drifter" need to be singles imo. Not a bad song on the album though, I'm hoping they can get a hit with something though as this is far too strong an album to go unnoticed. Then again I said the same thing about Avril Lavigne, Nelly Furtado, & Christina Aguilera's last efforts too...

Karmin uploaded the Album Listening Party / Live Chat on their YouTube channel.
Also:
This is the first part of behind the songs from Pulses, where Amy and Nick talk about the title track and "Drifter". In the latter, Amy's voice was pitched down, so it will look like a male rapper features on it when it's Amy doing it :o

The album is laced with big pop hooks, but I agree that there is something very corny and obnoxious about them. I don't think they're talentless, but they haven't gotten it quite right with their overall brand. I wouldn't be surprised if they end up dropped, and go on to make a "real" album.

They have always been corny, I almost feel like that's part of their brand. I find them to be extremely talented, they write, sing, dance, and play instruments, they are extremely gorgeous and I've always felt like they have a really clear idea of what kind of artist they want to be. They have the whole package. They just need some time and experience in the business to groom all that talent.
