Jonas Brothers - Lines, Vines & Trying Times
Suddenly, the brothers are everywhere: touring the planet and starring in their own Monkees-style TV series. For fans, the New Jersey boy band’s fourth album, released just 10 months after its last studio effort, is a Jonas bonus. Kevin, Joe and Nick are stretching out a little here, adding horns to their power-pop sound and tackling more topical subjects on songs like “Don’t Charge Me for the Crime,” featuring the rapper Common. “Trying Times” may be their nod to global problems, but the Jonas’ world has never been rosier.
