Negative Positive
Title: Bleak, grim, grim....
Review: I think MA have spent too much time reading the papers. This is one of the most depressing, grim, lachrymose CDs I have yet heard. Listening to this in the car CD player on the way to work is the best possible way to get unmotivated to do any work - particularly in the depressing Bay Area economy. Navel-gazing at its worst. Very Goth, very dark, and just a bit too much in general. Verging on monotonous. DO NOT listen to this if you're out of work or mourning a relationship. In fact, even if you're in a cheerful mood, this disc will fix that good and proper. Good production, good atmospherics. The musicians on this disc just really need to get away for a vacation in a sunny place and drink lots of pina coladas. No wonder Sinead's retiring after cutting this CD.
