Gone is the debut studio album by American band Vacationer. [4] [5] It was released in 2012 under Downtown Records. [6]
The Line of Best Fit wrote that "warm harmonies and click-clack percussion pervades everything and suffocates anything that might have been an interesting execution ... you can have any style of music you like as long as you want a profoundly beige, gloopy style of music." [7] Alternative Press called the album "textured indie pop buoyed by tropical percussion, soulful crooning, quirky samples and atmospheric keyboards." [8]

This Time Around is the second studio album by American pop rock group Hanson, released in 2000. Although Hanson had several albums in between, This Time Around is their first standard studio release since 1997's Middle of Nowhere. This Time Around did not achieve the commercial success of its predecessor Middle of Nowhere. The album does not feature as many bubblegum pop style tunes as Middle of Nowhere; instead, Hanson opted to focus on a more classic rock sound, or as MTV.com stated, "stadium rock". The album also features numerous ballads, with songs such as "Sure About It" and "A Song to Sing" covering the themes of teenage insecurity and loneliness, much like "Weird" from Middle of Nowhere. Critically, This Time Around received mainly positive reviews. To date, it has sold over one million copies worldwide. This Time Around is the only Hanson album to date not featured on streaming services.
