Mercedes can slay a guitar and hit amazing notes vocally.
Phoenix can lay down awesome stick work like any well known rocker can.
You can't really compare CML to other bands, from what I have listened to.
Their new album "Becoming" varies in sound but, overall is amazing. They vary in a pop-rock sound to a heavier tone within one song change. Their older album "For Now" is amazing as well and had tracks like "Bridges" and "Barricade" that set them apart. CML may not be for everyone, but I have grown quite fond of them.
