Rascal Flatts' new album "Unstoppable" proved to be more than just another repetitive CD. Rascal Flatts have released seven albums and have contributed in the writing of many of their songs. "Unstoppable" offers a new light into the hearts of the Rascal Flatts members with a softer beat then usual.
While many of their songs are often ballads, like "God Bless the Broken Road" from their album "Feels Like Today," or "Skin," about a girl with leukemia; they have always had more upbeat songs to balance out the ballads on their albums. However, on "Unstoppable" almost all of the songs are slow and sad, definitely more serious than any other album they have ever released.
Songs like "Unstoppable" encourage listeners to continue on in life despite the mistakes they may have made, a rather hopeful song and typical, but still beautifully sung by Rascal Flatts. Contrary to that is a sadder song on the album called "Why," which alludes to a teenage suicide and the regret that comes from being unable to stop such occurrences.
Many of the songs discuss leaving, love and sadness as well as death. This is a more somber approach to their music than Rascal Flatts generally have, but it shows a more serious approach to life, and the ballads are sung amazingly. Additions like that of "She'd be California," make the CD a little more upbeat and yet still different and more grounded than their previous albums.
Altogether, whether you like Rascal Flatts generally or not; if you're looking for a soft, encouraging album with incredible harmonies and just a touch of twang, you will love this CD as well as other Rascal Flatts albums.
