Sonically, its one of my favorite records. The drums, guitars and vocals sound amazing. Especially the drums.

Music wise.. ehh. When they posted Storytime on their website I got really excited, but IMHO the CD doesn't have the same spark as that one song. Not like any of the songs are bad (with exception to the cover song, which is horrible), I just was expecting something i didn't receive.

with that said, i would buy a full length and go see them if they came around here.

what is the cover?  i'm hoping it's the AWFUL song in the middle of the EP.......it's simply horrendous.

storytime is good, but not brilliant.  there are a couple really great tunes on there.

personally i think the vocals are where it suffers the most.

musically it's j.robbins as usual.  lyrically he's just getting more subdued, and more bizarre with his concepts.

i can't hardly follow the vocals anymore.....identikit was pushing it.....

I think there is a John Cale Cover...? Fear?

[redelephant]

yes, fear is a mans best friend. horrible.. seriously.

I really like Storytime. Shame the rest isn't as good apparently. I'll get it anyway I think.
