Title: Someone get this man some caffeine!
Product review: Geez man, live a little! The vocalist is all but rocking out on this release, which is fine, but it drags the musicians behind him to fall asleep. I was referred this by gnod.net because I really just now learned that I like My Morning Jacket and wanted to see what other bands sound like them. But this is kind of like tranquilizer rock.The jist of the album is that this band wants to recall Simple Minds and Billy Corgan's quietest, softest tracks. That's what I got from it. They really want to make pop songs about nothing but leaving life behind using breathy vocals and a weak backing band. And then to top it all off, they try getting crazy for the last song to make up for not having energy throughout any of the other tracks. A total bore album with no backbone or originality.
