Title: "The emperor has no clothes!"
Review: Although this was promoted as "alternative rock", the music and trend seems distinctly closer to something Billy Ray Cyrus or Garth Brooks would do (I dislike country music as much as I do rap music, so that view may be biased.)I listened to this entire CD at a used record store am embarrased to see how anyone could say this is good, much less OK! I thought the singer was a bewildered Brian Setzer (who has only occasionally resurfaced after leaving the Stray Cats) and that the rest of band members just reeked. I've seen a novice Bluegrass band from a New Orleans bayou play better music than these guys!If you want good music, get any CDs from Lifehouse, Oleander, Matthew Good Band, or Coldplay (the only four current good alt-rocks bands that are out right now.) But "Down" deserves the door!
