Negative Positive
Title: Here's the "beef."
Review: My beef is: Why do so many artists/groups sound so much alike? Take "Chinese Burn" for example, from the CD "Cuckoo" by Curve. Like the person who sees their life pass before their eyes in the moment or two before their impending death, listening to the opening measures reminded me of a bunch of different genres/groups/songs---all at once.In essence, my musical life passed before my ears. More of the same [cringing]. Do I have to listen to the whole thing [frowning because I know I've never heard it before] again?Curve, apparently, is simply suffering from the same problem that ninety percent of all the other musicians and writers currently recording music are suffering from---lack-of-creativity-itis.Doing so much that has been done before, but much better, would be lovely. But they don't.And I don't give good ratings to music that, I'd swear, I've listened to in a dozen previous lives.
Is the review positive or negative?
