TuneLab Music(6.5/10)[1]

Comes and Goes is the fourth and final studio album by Canadian hard rock band Default. It was released on September 29, 2009 in Canada and internationally on October 26, 2010. The band has released four singles from the album: "All Over Me", "Little Too Late", "Turn It On", and "Supposed to Be", all released exclusively in Canada. The music video for "All Over Me" was released on September 21, 2009. Comes and Goes debuted at No. 137 on the Billboard 200 chart.

Content[edit]

Comes and Goes was originally going to be released on TVT Records, which went bankrupt in 2008. As a result, the band underwent several court cases before EMI Canada licensed the rights to the album. Label executives made the decision because they felt that Default was more financially viable than other TVT acts.[2]

Critical reception[edit]

Rating it two-and-a-half stars out of five, Christopher Tessmer of The Leader-Post thought that "Caught in the Moment" was one of the band's best songs, but otherwise found the album's sound "formulaic".[3]
