Title: Does not meet expectations
Product review: To give you a little background, I once said to a friend, "If I could have made any album ever, I would have made musicforhtemorningafter" (Pete Yorn's debut album). Sure, the statement is a little strong and I may have been drunk, but the point remains: PY's first album was incredibly beautiful, earnest, and just about note-perfect.This album is not. I had high expectation for this album--they were not met. There a couple very good songs, several mediocre ones, some poor joints, and 'Burrito.' The very fact that PY wrote a song called 'Burrito' and sings it with a straight-face means I should get my money back. I mean, listen people: the song is called Burrito! Unbelieveable.So there it is. The 'Intro,' 'Come Back Home,' 'Crystal Village,' and 'Man in Uniform' are good additions to the PY oeuvre. The rest is unnecessary--just like this album. Save your cash and check out The Shins, Interpol, or British Sea Power if you want something interesting.
