Title: Almost Brilliant
Product review: Cake is my favorite band, so I am biased. That said, I think I'm being fair when I say that the album is very good, almost incredible.I get the feeling that the band (or John) was a bit rushed when making this album. Sometimes the lyrics seem a bit sparse or weak or at other times just repeat way too much.I wish they would take a lesson from Pink Floyd and slow it down; let the music groove for a bit longer and say what they really mean to say.Now despite my criticism I think that they still have unbelievable talent when it comes to song writing and performing. This is a must have album if you have liked their past stuff, especially Comfort Eagle. Best track in my opinion is "Take It All Away" (if you want to, say, download a sample).
