But the biggest issue I have with it is Lindsey’s decision to do ALL his vocals in that grating, self-conscious, atonal, breathy style he’s been overrelying on for many years. I wish the guy would just SING normally and stop trying to sound so fey and precious and whispery on every song. Do it sparingly.

That was my issue with it. His backup vocals on the verses of "Carnival Begin" are a bit creepy. And I HATED what he contributed to Christine's otherwise lovely and warm "Game of Pretend"--it ruined the song.
On his own songs, he refuses to belt. "On With the Show" is so good because you can hear the old Lindsey on it.
Still, I do love BuckVie. I only wish there were two more songs on it. 10 seems thin...
