Title: "I think I smell a Rat"
Product review: This attempt at presenting us with the anti Britney/Nsync, only gives us another indication as to why the music industry is suffering. My wife bought me this CD knowing I'm into pop rock groups like Supergrass and early Kinks. The Hit: "Fell in love with a girl" reminded her of these Brit groups, with it's straight ahead rock/raw sound. This tune is pretty cool & catchy, But a complete album (16 tracks) built around 1 single tune that's only 2 minutes long???? (40 minutes total). Unfortunatley The rest of the album left lot to be desired. The CD is not bad, in fact overall I'd say its OK, but I can't listen to it front-to-back.After several listenings there is a sameness, in a bad way, that gets old really quick. I know that it's the toned down rawness that's "cool" about the White Stripes, but here it tends to sound almost contrived and "gimmicky".
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
