Fails to meet expectations
Posted September 26, 2007
By clearspoken,
I've heard a fair amount about this band before listening to this album and I normally enjoy artists on the Flicker Record label, however this is not an album that will remain in my collection. With weird and slightly disturbing lyrics such as "Hang me tonight in the false and jaded light/In the center of the square, murder's breeding in the air" ("Last Day of 1888"), I had a hard time digesting their lyrics and discerning what they were actually talking about. Musically they weren't very strong either. From the awkward singing of the lyrics in "The Seed We've Sown" to the darker choice of words (many songs have references to death), this album fails to hold my interest. The title track is a fairly good single, as well as the melodic final song "This Could Be The Song That Will Change Your Life," however those are the only two songs that I would care to listen to again.
