Billboard:
ARTIST: HANSON
ALBUM: THE WALK (3CG Records)
"The Walk" has an iconic American sound in the same way that, say, Michael Bay makes iconic American movies; this is music to play while speeding a convertible down country roads at sunset with a blonde in a sundress standing up in the passenger seat, arms outstretched. Such an approach will, of course, endear Hanson to about as many people as it horrifies, but there's no doubt that 10 years after it sprung "Mmmbop" on an unsuspecting populace waiting for that Prodigy album, Hanson remains as aggressively accessible as ever. "Been There Before" packs a na-na-na chorus, "60" is the group's shot at the "Grey's Anatomy" market looking for something cuter than the Fray, and "Georgia" is all heartland jangle and cheeseburger-and-a-beer production that could fit right into pop, adult contemporary or country playlists.
