Better then the other two, even if those are really good..........2007-06-19

Well, I just bought this recently, and I have to say this is a really good CD. But, of course, it's not for everybody. People who liked "The Black Parade" and even "Three Cheers" may not like this, as it is some of the hardest rock out there. Almost all of the songs on this album are at least two times harder than "Hang 'Em High". Also, parents, this CD deserves a PA sticker, as in one of the songs there are eight f-words (all of the songs aren't like that, though).

Absolutely the best one of them all.......2007-05-24

Raw, haunting. Any MCR fan must have this in his/her collection. The only song added that would make it a 6 is "Sister to Sleep" as it exists today (recorded as either a demo or at a club by someone). You will play it over and over and won't be able to help yourself. BUY IT ABSOLUTELY.

My Chemical romance.......2007-05-08

Wasn't sure when I first bought it, but now absolutely love it. The riffs, the lyrics everything we have come to know and love from MCR. This is an album I would highly recommend.

My Chemical Romance.......2007-05-04

I love this album. It's not mainstream, but it's still appealing to people. This album is a must for anyone who considers themselves a fan of My Chemical Romance. It's dark, fast-paced, and filled with meaninful and emotional lyrics. (Pay attention to the lyrics remember) Each song is different in its own way.
~~REASONS TO BUY THIS ALBUM~~
*Headfirst for Halos-Don't get fooled by the upbeat tempo, listen carefully to the words. Really great song, though.
*Honey, This Mirror Isn't Big Enough for the Two of Us-This song is great, it has a music video if you didn't know already.
*Demolition Lovers-Starts at slow, but has a fast, loud ending. Who couldn't love this song?! I don't know who...
*Early Sunsets Over Monroeville: A slower song. It has this sort of eerie quality to it I think.
Oh yeah, that's just SOME of the songs on this album. So, anyways this is a great album.

My Chemical Romance.......2007-04-24

Okay, this is a great CD. It is MUCH darker than The Black Parade and Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge, though. But I still love it because...
~Demolition Lovers: this is the song that I first really loved from My Chemical Romance, more than The Black Parade or Three Cheers stuff.
~Vampires Will Never Hurt You: This is another awesome song, I can listen to it non-stop!!
~Drowning Lessons: I really like this song, too... but what is up with the end, how it stops and then starts again??!!! whatever, it's still good.
Anyways, those are my favorite songs off this CD. So many people only know The Black Parade stuff, but really I think this is so much better.

Amazing!.......2007-02-13

I really loved this collection of extremely odd songs, from the Colonel and friends. Many reasons, first Claypool's bass is so thriving and jumping and jossling around in every song, that its hard for me to contain myself, but i will. anyway, i just love the musicianship of all the musicians taking part in Claypool's side project, I've never really listened to Primus before, but im a huge Bucket, Brain, Bernie fan and i can easily say that there at their best in this. Claypool gives the songs a lot more vibe and great tone, the production is very good i might add too. Though many fans don't like this one, i just can't see how they don't like it, it's so amazing and "different" from anything i've ever heard any band play on any cd i own, i just love it. highly recommended for fans of Buckethead, and fans of avant-garde weird fusion rock funk.

more like 3.75 for an amazing combination that doesn't always click together.......2007-01-21

Follow this math:

75% of this group is 60% of the Praxis lineup that probably made one of the most amazing albums of ALL TIME--_Transmutation_. Combine this with 1/3 of Primus, and you get Colonel Claypool's Bucket of Bernie Brains.

Just listing the RELEVANT resumes of the lineup of this group would take up far more space and time than I'm inclined to write right now. Fair to say that the names connect to such bands as Primus, Funkadelic, Guns 'n' Roses, and all of these guys have hooked up with Bill Laswell at one point or another, but one thing that is clear is that you have a LOT of groundbreakers. Aside from the way Les Claypool reinvented the whole fretboard and possibilities of bass, and how Bernie Worrell brought keyboards into the space age, and the fact that anthropologists will still be studying the Buckethead phenomena for centuries, these four (including Brain) sound like a dream combination. And for songs like the phenomenal instrumental "Elephant Ghost" and "Tyranny of the Hunt" and the incredibly redneck "Hip Shot from the Slab," they all come together for unbelivable sounds.

But sometimes the personalities step in the way of the playing. Claypool, bless his heart, has an affinity for promoting the myth of Bucketheadland, but it lets the KFCed one setp out a little too much from the group, and the song becomes disjointed. In the Praxis days, Worrell, Buckethead and Brain fused into and amazing sound that used the best of everyone while letting no one take away from the essence of the song, but Bernie Brains can't quite retain the same magic.

Wow this is soooo under rated. What a jam of an LP.......2006-06-16

This LP is sooooo under rated. This is where Les Claypool takes off after primus and other projects after that. The whole band works so great together. Bernie Worrell - Keyboards is out standing! Buckethead working the Guitar is trippy. Long time pal Bryan "Brain" Mantia from Primus thumps out the tones on drums. Along with good olde Les on bass. This (Elephant Ghost) song is so toe tapping it's head bobbing and dance grooving. This is one great jam that the greater of the world should hear. Hell I cant really get past Elephant Ghost(Bernie Worrell - Keyboards is toe rific!). I listen to it over and over. Get one of the live cds' too c2b3live.

I want to knock that eyeball out of the sky..........2006-04-29

I got what i wanted with this purchase: great music from great musicians. This is a supergroup that is into the music more than the money. But I really enjoy their live music available at c2b3live dot com, which is stupendous. I have a copy of their live show at The Catalyst and it's real and it's spectacular. Not to dis this fine ensemble of jams including the origin of Buckethead, Thai Noodles, and Tyranny Of The Hunt. I love The Big Eyeball In The Sky b/c it speaks the truth about big brother media inc. Great anthems for dubya-haters (Junior, 48 hours) on this disc, but I still recommend downloading a live show or ten. In all, this is a superb, funky jam. Can't really go wrong with these guys. Their music is refreshing, fun, and unique: I laughed, I cried, I wet my pants.

PRIMUS SUCKS!!!!! Oooops, this is not P r i m u s.......2005-11-29

Actually, this group is probably what Claypool assembled to get HIS best sound out. As we all know who Clayppol and Buckethead are. For the reviewer who described the the band, and naming Bernie Worrell "The Organist" (and spelled it wrong too!). Bernie Worrell is the BUZZ behind P-FUNK! GET IT RIGHT, SON!!! Good music, Buckethead is a good guitarist (uh oh, I can just feel those KFC heads clucking @ me). Everyone has talked about Claypool and Buckethead, Buckethead and Claypool. Les is a phenomenal bassist. When you hear that slaping, you know it's the Colonel Claypool. 4 out 5 ain't bad!

GOD.......2007-07-12

this cd SUCKS. i was really expecting a lot, i love nuclear. sad. nuclear., but this is just not good at all. their slightly annoying vocalist stayed, and the awesome guitar left. wtf?

Amazing release.......2007-06-22

I first witnessed The Number Twelve opening for Thursday a few years back, although I was at first shocked with their dual vocal attack, I was drawn to their music. I was really not sure what to expect with their latest album, since they have such a wide variety of styles. I was pleasantly surprised when listening. They stay true to their trademark sound, but you can tell they've improved and grown a lot. The piercing high pitch screams are still there but more bearable, but the deep growls have been perfected and sound more unique in my opinion. Musically they still are very diverse, drumming is absolutely amazing. Guitars are still brutal, with the occasional jazz breakdowns. I'm noticing more fall of troy-esque pull-off riffs too.
This is a very unique album, their best in my opinion, you just can't get bored with it if your any kind of metal fan.

Since disbanding the Talking Heads many years back, David Byrne has charted a singular course in the pop world. He has delved deeply into the worlds of both Brazilian and African music, while never losing touch with his art-school rock roots. With the release of Look into the Eyeball Byrne once again delivers a seamless blend of the musical forms that inspire him, with his trademark wry humor and keen sense of detail. While Byrne may never write the great heartbreaking standard, there is something quite moving about his droll observations on modern life. In songs like "Smile" and "The Revolution" (both of which feature beautiful string arrangements) one senses a genuine sadness, whereas perhaps in the old Talking Heads days one would feel only that they were lucky to be in on some prankster's intellectual joke. So what we have here is a mature artist at the height of his powers adding yet another classic to his already prodigious canon. --Ike Bolton

Customer Reviews:

Admittedly Not DB's Masterpiece..........2007-07-05

...but Byrne's nadir surpasses most artists' peaks. (Not that this is his worst by a long shot.)
The beauty of Heads/Byrne is his turgid lyrics mean different things at different stages of life. Same has held true with this album after a few years of listening. Some songs that seemed brilliant the first time I heard them now seem a little silly, and some that flashed past back then have blossomed.
I wouldn't recommend this CD for someone who only had enough money to buy 5 of the greatest Heads/Byrne CDs; BUT probably would for someone who was buying the best overall 30 CDs.
If he's cashing in, at least this CD sucks much less than what Dylan, Petty, Jagger and the rest of these 60-somethings are putting out lately.

my first david solo cd...........2007-05-02

and i love it!!!!:)

from beginning to end, this cd is great. it includes some of the happiest songs i think i have ever heard, which is coming from a big fan of happy songs.:)

cool. just cool is the only way besides super great to describe this cd. is it a good place to start your david byrne collection?? i dont know, but its definetley persuaded me to check out everything else.

and i should say the talking heads are in my top 5, but now david byrne is there too!:)

5 Stars ...for price, service, and product........2007-03-14

This was a very inexpensive used album. I got more than I paid for, in excellent condition, and on time.

Oh my god..........2006-04-10

WTF.

This guy should be shot or at least locked away forever for attempting to make money off of this travesty. And someone should beat some sense into letterman, too.

Then I read that he was the frontman of Talking Heads; that explains alot.

There isn't one redeeming quality to this drivel. Lyrics, music, voice are all pretty sorry.

If you listen to this you'd be better off converting to (c)rap.

GET THIS NOW!.......2005-11-14

if you, at all, like david byrne get this now!!! It is definitely his best solo album...though, i DO like feelings and his self-titled one very much.

And i don't care what some crazy people say...David has an AMAZING voice! Just TRY not to sing along!

These guys are simply AWESOME! I saw them in concert with HeavyHeavyLowLow, Fear Before The March Of Flames, and Thursday, and I was stunned. Live, they are a elegantly sloppy band. This cd is Murder By Death at their height. "Until Morale Improves, The Beatings Will Continue" is by far my favorite song on this cd. So, in the end, if you've never heard Murder By Death before, purchase this cd now. You will not be disapointed!

Amazing, Buy this CD now!.......2006-03-30

I had been a fan of Murder By Death for about a year before this CD was released. I picked it up the day it came out and was instantly blown away. The songs on this CD flow perfectly together and songs themselves are amazing as well. Murder By Death is one of the most musically talented bands that I have ever heard, and they are by far my favorite. This CD is amazing, buy it now.

This album is incredible.......2005-10-29

I first heard this band a few months ago when a member of my tapers group told me about them and asked me to tape them when they came to my town. I was completely blown away by this album. It has not left my car cd player since. This album is nothing short of brilliant and I cannot believe these guys have been over looked. Buy this album, hell buy 12, this band is way more worthy of your support than 99.9% of the bands out there.

Poetry and Tone.......2005-09-05

I was introduced to this album by a friend who said, "I don't know what it is, you'd just like it." That explanation coming from a music major who usually has a lot to say on the matter.

I'm not a big fan of either music or poetry, but this has good aspects of both. Great music founds a base for the lyrics, which is described often as the story of the Devil in a western setting, but then again, there seems to be a lot of political meaning to it. You know, Texas, oil, nuclear war, all that wonderful imagery. In fact I'm rather surprised at the other reviews of this album that neglect to mention this aspect, but I think that's more a power of poetry: double-meanings, the literal and the abstract. That's the way poetry should be, but modern poetry tends to throw that out in favor of simplistic blank-verse.

The tone of this music, though, is usually what predominates. As much as I like the vocals, I like most to just sit back and let the music take me along on its own power. I don't know, I'm a post-rock fan, apocalyptic songs are my thing.

--PolarisDiB

i wrote this over a year ago, but it still holds true........2005-05-20

this entire record is a elegant masterpiece. it begins with "devil in mexico", a prelude of things to come. this record is actually a storybook about western towns in Mexico and America being attacked by the devil. it seems strange how you can link a classy masterpiece with such an abstract, gloomy, even eccentric topic like that. but murder by death does it, and they produce a beautiful album. it is like nothing i have ever heard.

"killbot2000" is an interesting, sort-of-upbeat song, yet... not. since this record supposedly takes place in the west, it reminds me of a lecture or prayer after a gunfight, especially toward the end where Adam is chanting.

"until morale improves, the beatings will continue" made me laugh at first. just the title alone is worth questioning. this was the first track on the album that i listened to repeatedly, mainly to hear the bridge, because it is perfectly executed... even as short as it is. the chorus is catchy. i suppose i would select this to be a single, because of its immediate appeal.

i feel that "three men hanging" is the weakest song on the album. because it's one of the softest? maybe. i think it's the weakest, because it lacks the speed and emotional intricacy of the other tracks. this has steel guitar, cello, and light snare and cymbals. i still found it enjoyable and it captures the "western" feel very well. it's just not up to par with the rest.

the record really takes form after the intermission, track number five. "a master's in reverse psychology" is brilliant from the beginning. it's exciting and doesn't let up, even after it's finished. i particularly enjoyed the piano in the pre-chorus sections. to keep the album flowing perfectly, "the desert is on fire" is an upbeat song with a allegro-like tempo.

my personal favorite song on the album is "that crown don't make you a prince". this is an amazing composition. it is the most emotional and suspenseful song. although somewhat melancholy in nature, it has a beautiful mix of guitar, piano, and cello. the best on the album, i feel. the song has many peaks and slopes but is concluded without any loose ends. i consider this song the climax of the story.

another melancholy tune follows. this time it's of slower tempo. "pillars of salt" takes me back to the days of playing final fantasy ix with its soft piano and cello. i am just reminded of game music by the very nature of this piece. beautifully done, and probably my second favorite track.

"end of the line" is brilliant its own way. while slow to pick up, it builds to a very powerful singing performance from Adam and perfect correspondence from the instruments in the band. after the song concludes, there's a two minute instrumental. i'm not entirely sure if it was meant to be part of the song, but i felt that it was connected, like a final farewell as the album and story close.

buy this album now. find it and hold onto it. if you don't, and the devil doesn't make you, i'll have to.

These guys are doing a great job with their music, and Eyeball Records is doing a great job helping these guys get to the top. This album is a great mixture of pop and rock and the riffs will get stuck in your head for days, and it is just the beginning for these guys. Tracks to look for are Cold-Hearted Town, Wire and Stone (video now appearing on fuse and MTVu), and Late Night Television. These guys are just starting to get recognized and respected, and they are a great find for Eyeball, which has given rise to bands such as My Chemical Romance, Thursday, and Murder by Death. We should be expecting more incredible music from these guys as well as Eyeball in the next few years. Awesome music.

Album Description

Pencey Prep was formed from the ex-members of local punk heroes Sector 12 and Stick Figure Suicide. They were a rare mix of punk, emo, and indie rock. Originally released in 2001, the band broke up shortly thereafter, and this title has been unavailable for over two years. Before bands like The Used and Thursday were mainstream successes, Pencey Prep was creating music that fused many styles together while keeping true to punk rock roots.

Epitome Of Emo... Bwahaha!.......2007-02-20

This is Lori here, not mein fazhah. Okay, so everyone here's been saying that Frank Iero has a great voice. Now, I love Frankles as much as the rest of you, but let's get serious-- the sweetie's better at screaming than singing. His voice is super-whiny, and he just sounds like my nine-year-old brother. Despite that fact, I love the album so much! I'm always telling my friends who think they know emo to go check out Pencey Prep, cause they're the EPITOME OF EMO. But in a good way. And besides, what other band could get away with a song called 'Fat and Alone'?

Awesome CD.......2007-02-08

This actually isn't Mark, its his daughter Lizz. I'm signed in on his account. I accidently bought this on my dad's account and it is so awesome! I am a huge My Chemical Romance fan and when I found out that Frank Iero used to be in a band, I immediatley went to Google. I searched for it and listened to it and wanted it right away. Frank Iero's voice isn't any Gerard Way, but it's something and I love it!!!

Pencey Prep Rox!.......2006-07-01

If you've finally figured out that rhythm guitarist 4 MCR Frank Iero used to front a band called Pencey Prep and want to know what they sounded like, buy Heartbreak in Stereo. Once you get over the initial shock that it's Frank singing and not Gerard, you'll get into the strange lyrics and the screaming in almost evry song.!

Pencey Prep.......2006-06-21

I have to say, Frank Iero has a damn good voice. Not that it's up to par with most lead singers in the biz today, but it's pretty awesome, I must say. But I love My Chem and I love Pencey Prep. Therefore, I love this cd.

Why all the great reviews?.......2006-06-18

I HATE this. He is awesome as a guitarist for My Chemical Romance, but what in the world is THIS? He sounds like a retarded constipated 8- year old, when he sings (oops! I mean when he TRYS to sing.)

Oh mannn..........2006-05-16

I'm a huge, huge fan of "Who Will Survive and What Will be Left of Them," so much that I've listened to it millions of times and have found something new and amazing to love each time. I can't even try to break down the hours I've spent listening to that CD.

I guess I'm going to have to get myself ready to do the same with this CD. I just got it today and I've listened to it three times straight, each time liking it more and more.

Honestly this is a breath of fresh air considering some recent disappointments. System of a Down's Hypnotize I guess was so good at being hypnotic or something that it convinced me it doesn't exist, because I've listened to that album many times and still have no idea how the music goes because it's so bland I stop paying attention. Tool's 10000 Days is so much like Lateralus that whenever Vicarious begins I blank out and keep thinking for a moment that I'm listening to Schism.

But Murder by Death is some very strong and wonderful music. Technically, I think "Who Will Survive" is better because there's about a million different ways to take it and it's all structured around itself, making basically the consummate concept album. This one I'm not so sure about but I'm willing to bet the more I listen the more it will provide the same reactions... just unlike Who Will Survive, it doesn't immediately strike me as a thematic album.

Incredible.......2006-03-31

"Like The Exorcist..." is a fantastic CD that blends instrumental and vocal songs and shows just what Murder By Death is like. This CD is incredible, go pick it up now.

A MUST HAVE............2005-04-08

Murder by Death is one of those bands that are impossible to label. You can quiz people after one of their shows, and everyone will have an opinion on what kind of band they are. They blend emo, country, rock. They are bizarre, Gothic, jarring, and melodic.
I took to this band as soon as I heard the first track of this CD. I've always been into ambient, emotional music. I admit, I held my breath until I heard the vocalist, and he does not disappoint. Best thing is, when you go see MBD, they are very approachable. We actually had dinner with them before the show.
If you are a fan of bands like The Gathering, Lacuna Coil, Tool, A Perfect Circle, Neurosis....anything experimental and progressive, then you will like MBD.

Beautiful and original band, now called Murder By Death.......2003-09-25

I saw this band play live with Thursday, and they were incredible. Saying that I was totally blown away would be an understatment. Everyone in the crowd was shocked at how good a band that came on stage with a drummer, cello, keyboard, bass and guitar from Indiana could be. I didn't think that music this lush and structured and beautiful could be made by anyone. I went to the show expecting this band to be another mediocre cookie cutter hardcore band, and I was astonished at how moved I was by their music. Needless to say, I bought everything they had for sale that night...shirts, posters, CDs everything. This CD does not dissapoint, as it delivers rich and moving pieces of music, ranging from long winding instrumentals to stripped down rockers. There is so much to be heard with their music, and it creates a new listening experience every time you listen. This album is so deep and so beautiful, it's a must have. Give it a try and I promise you'll like it.

PS Their new band name is Murder By Death and they have a new CD coming out within the next month on eyeball records. Buy it!

Like Heaven.......2003-07-02

Like heaven flowing endlessly into my ears. This album is simply amazing. Although their is no such thing as "Little Joe Gould" as the band is now called "Murder By Death." They sell this cd with a Murder By Death sticker on it now. Back to the music... the cello blends perfectly with the dark mood of this cd. The keyboard does so as well. The singer's voice is exceptionally great and just adds to the greatness of this cd. I recommend you buy this now and expand your pleasure.

Truly Amazing.......2006-10-01

Thursday have been my favorite band for a long time now. War All the Time is possibly one of the best albums to be released in the last twenty years. But Waiting is a totally different beast. It is emotional and almost un-political. Almost. Where the Circle Ends is a genious song about the degradation of humanity and urban developement. But, truly, this album blows me away every time I listen to it. I have said other times that I have never been a fan of the New Jersey explosion, but Thursday came a good three-four years before that wave of crap caught on. If you want an example, play any song on this album next to "How Does It Feel to Be A Ghost" by Taking Back Sunday. The music here, despite being made a good eight years before that song, is more focused, the lyrics intelligent, and the singing phenomenol. Oh, and have you ever looked at a picture of the new TBS? They look like the biggest stereotypes ever. And hey, that's because they are. But Thursday make music that denies all comparisons to other bands from the same state. Emo is truly a term that has never applied to them. Sure, they've been called it. But only by people who have never heard their music. It's too short, but still full of talent and a great jumping off point, not on the new album, which is where all the poseurs who want to say, "Yeah, I'm a fan of Thursday" start. Not to say that ACBTLD is a bad album. Thursday has never produced a bad piece of music. But, back to this album, Amazing in every respect. Buy it this instant.

Great but short.......2006-02-12

This is the first Thursday CD I bought about 3 or 4 years ago. I fell in love with the band and bought all their albums. But "Waiting" really stands out from the rest as being truly raw and full of emotion. Geoffs voice is amazing and you can really feel him when he sings. Standout songs are obviously Porcelain, I love how they included violins on This Side of Brightness, and Ian Curtis and The Dotted Line are also great. If you are new to Thursday you should probably buy War All the Time first, then work your way back.

An excellent first album.......2005-12-21

I wouldn't give this album a full 5 stars, more like 4.5. I actually bought Full Collapse and War All The Time before I bought this album, so it has been interesting to hear the beginning after the middle. I love the roughness and rawness of this record in its production, and I would highly recommend it to any Thursday fan who doesn't have it yet. Can't wait for their new album!

Waiting is thursday's best album.......2005-09-21

Waiting is by far Thursday's best album. There is absolutly nothing like hearing Geoff yell "Love has torn us apart". This cd is great ...without a doubt the most raw and emotional of all their releases.

Not the best, yet...........2005-08-29

Still a very good album. "Waiting" is a perfect example of what Thursday has the potential to do. This album illustrates how good Thursday can be, and is even more obvious after listening to War All the Time and Full Collapse. The album starts off with a song called Porcelain, and right from the beginning these guys set the stage for a good album. Porcelain starts up this band which is, even in this album, not filled with whining and crying about girls, and this trend is continued throughout the next albums. I would rate the songs of this album as followed:

Porcelain: 9/10 Nice introduction.
This Side of Brightness: 9/10 Geoff shows off softer vocals.
Ian Curtis: 9/10 Maybe the most scremo song on the album.
Introduction: Instrumentals.
Streaks in the Sky:9/10 Nice song after some instrumentals.
In Transmission: 8/10 Some pretty cool guitar parts.
Dying in New Brunswick: 9/10 Geoff mixes screaming with casual singing
Dotted Line: 8/10 Not my favorite song on the album.
Where the Circle Ends: 10/10 For some strange reason, this is my favorite song on this album, even though Geoff is not singing, but talking over some catchy instrumentals.

Overall though, this is a great album. I enjoyed this album just as much as any other CD that I have ever listened to, and, in truth, I say this ranks closer to 4.5 stars rather than 4.

def recommended!!

best album i've purchased this year.......2007-03-06

intricate instrumentation, good use of rhythm, catchy lyrics, tight arrangements, creative... worth the money for the album

Reality vs. everything you buy this year will not be better .......2007-02-15

In an age where most albums just lay on your itunes going uheard and are usually lackluster. Kiss Kiss delivers something new, fresh and definitely a gem of a record. You cannot just listen to the record once, it is impossible. After hearing this bands myspace almost two years ago, i booked them for a show. I have seen them four other times and never leave dissapointed. A part of me wants to keep this band as the band i know no one knows about, but i cant. BUY THIS ALBUM, it is like nothing you have ever heard.
standout tracks* machines, vagabond, stay the day, satellite.
Finally, if you do decide to purchase this cd, go over to the eyeball records website and see what other amazing artists they have on their roster.

I usually dont do reviews but i could not hold out for this album or this band.

Kiss Kiss really needs to break up now.......2007-02-12

because surely, they can't make better music than this, but that's exactly what I thought when I heard their Kiss Kiss EP. Reality Vs. The Optimist, released only on February 8th is already probably going to be the best album of 2007. From start to finish, there is absolutely no time wasted, every song is well developed, catchy, and actually very technical. No time being wasted, meaning you will get a 32 minute album, but don't be so hasty to say that this is a bad thing, because everything fits so well on this album, that really, I don't know how they could have made it any longer. Extremely enjoyable, how music should be. Odd time signautes, tempo changes, the works to make a music maniac amazed. Also the average listener with extremely catchy tunes. Anyone that wants good music all around, I seriously recommend you get this album, even if this means you don't listen to any samples, it's impossible not to like this.

AMAZING!!!.......2007-02-12

This CD is AMAZING! It's sound is so unique and unlike anything out there these days. I recommend it to everyone and can asure you that you will not be disappointed. These guys are the next big thing. Best CD I've bought in years!
