It has strong vocals, and most of the album is based on McMahon's cancer. It got positive reviews from Maverick Records and has now singed a deal with them. Although the album is only 45:33 minutes long, it is filled with songs that has everyone singing and enjoying.
The Glass Passenger, went to #8 on the Billboard 200. This album was a massive success. It sold 49, 000 albums within the first week.
