Gary LeVox has amazing vocal ability unsurpassed by any other male country singer heard on the charts today.
That's why the best songs from Melt are the ballads -- he sings them with such a fiery zeal that you can't help but be transfixed by the titanic sound coming out of the speakers.
But that certainly doesn't mean that the up-tempo and quicker songs aren't worth listening to.
In fact, the whole 11-song collection is worth listening to over and over.
A platinum-selling debut album with a follow-up sophomore album that's as brilliant as the first -- if not more so -- doesn't happen all that often in an industry subject to dozens of newcomers a minute.
Their harmonies are musically superior and their songwriting efforts continue to be original and fresh.
Rascal Flatts is a band that deserves more than its due.
