Sleazy fuzz bass and an attempt at Southern gothic flair that would make Flannery O'Connor embarassed. Spacey synth rock standard formats and a touch of catchy pop melodies. I dunno, not totally feeling it, but not ready to write it off altogether. These guys could have some star power if they would just write some extremely catchy riff, gave in to the pop sensibilities that they try to restrain by straining the album through the frosted glass of the word "dark." Songs like "Of Loving Me" show promise in the interesting chord progression that kicks the song off, but halfway through it melts down into mediocre, mid-tempo four-chord riff rock.

score is for being different Score is for the band name. Score is for the amount of Flannery O'Connor essays I had to write in high school. hm. |
