Elements of industrial define the heavy work of the opening title track “Emotion Sickness”. Flowing perfectly off of “Emotion Sickness” with its precise driving rhythm. Neon-hued in its dancehall exuberance is the joyous workout of “What I Feel For You”. Melodically sound “What I Feel For You” serves as the album’s highlight with a sense of playful counterbalanced with the tender lyricism. Maintaining this steady beat is the gargantuan sound of “Believe in Love”, compete with fluttering melodies. Introspective to the core is the delicate textures of “I’m Free”. “Dubstep’s influence can be felt on “Only Human” as the song has a rainy day quality to it. “Goodbye or Not” brings the album to a tasteful conclusion as the piano work drives its timeless message home. The intermingling of Michael Resin’s and Betty Chrys’ voice is particularly notable as they help build the song’s power up.
