No Reason to Run

Not every album in an artists catalog can be a step forward. And while all albums aren't revelations or big winners, they can still be enjoyable. Such is the case for the latest release by one of my favorite modern rock bands, Cold War Kids.CWK's latest release, "LA Divine," is not really anything revolutionary or spectacular. It certainly doesn't compare to 2014's epic, "Hold My Home," or even "Robbers & Cowards" or "Mine is Yours." However, just because it isn't the strongest album in their catalog or a giant leap forward (more like a side step), it is still a solid and enjoyable album to listen to.

I have a pretty good number of track, softball and baseball photos to share. Enjoy.
