Title: Almost good and could have been great
Review: Musically, there are a fair number of interesting bits going on. And as far as non-raregroove downtempo goes, it would actually be not half bad ... a nice intro or sophomore effort perhaps while the group is still finding their sound. But the vocals take away big points. Whatever inspired qualities it may have had musically are all but drowned out with lyrics that venture off into hip hop territories that feel incongruent with everything else on the disc. But let's await their next release before dismissing them entirely...
Is the review positive or negative?
