Title: This Side CD
Product review: I had to run right out and get Nickel Creek's new release -- This Side. I absolutely loved their first release -- self-titled, Nickel Creek (5-star rating), so I was really looking forward to buying their second release. I spent quite a bit of time listening to the CD last evening and for the most part was disappointed. The songs lacked the substance found on their first CD. I found the only radio-friendly tune to be the title track, which is featured on CMT as a "hot shot" video currently. It was spunky and upbeat. This is the ONLY song I truly enjoyed on the entire CD.I had difficulty trying to speculate what Nickel Creek's next single might be. There just didn't seem to be many songs that stood out. I thought most songs were down -- not upbeat...just the opposite of their first release.I think the members of Nickel Creek are extremely talented. I've seen them in concert and they were outstanding! However, for whatever reason, this CD missed the mark.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
