I have played it 4 times now. There are 12 songs but 4 are covers... that leaves 8 original songs... They could have easily found a few more original songs to put on the album to make it more robust. This is my biggest criticism with the album.

The songs themselves are great melodic rock maybe a bit more leaning into Country...

Jay has this to say about "Last Nights Whiskey" "

Continuing with Scheff’s Eagles mention, “Last Night’s Whiskey” has a “Take It to the Limit”-like steadiness. DeMarcus said, “We wanted to lean into our country influences a little bit on the new album and I think ‘Last Night’s Whiskey’ showcases that.”

This quote was taken from this interview about the new Album

If there were just 2 more uptempo songs this album would be just as good as the first, as it is it's good... but held back by 50% ballads and 4 covers.
