Title: ... and what happened
Product review: i know a band's in trouble when they continually talk about how satisfied they are with the direction that their music is headed (when they're interviewed). i was disappointed with "brighten the corners" but i was even more disappointed with "terror twilight". for those of you that enjoy "terror twilight", i envy you. i wanted to like this record. i still remember the joy that i felt when i discovered "slanted and enchanted", "watery domestic", "crooked rain, crooked rain" and "wowee zowee". i also remember the disappointment that i felt when i listened to "brighten the corners". something seems to have been lost, starting at that point. even though my appreciation for pavement has somewhat lessened, i still found some measure of pleasure while listening to "spit on a stranger". "major leagues", "...and carrot rope" had their moments as well. unfortunately, the best i can say about this work is that it contained one song that i'd look forward to hearing time and again.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
