The Script emerged fully formed on their eponymous debut, a self-assured collection of alt, pop, and R&B: Ireland's answer to OneRepublic. This is joyous, energetic stuff, anchored by lively keys, driving beats, and Donny O'Donoghue's vibrant vocals, with huge choruses waiting around every corner. Highlights include "Breakeven," a towering midtempo pop track with an unforgettable bass riff and O'Donoghue's stratospheric crooning.
