Negative Positive
Title: Not bad, not great
Review: There is a rawness in this recording that is refreshing, both in the playing, which seems to fall apart at times, and in the recording itself. There is also a humor in the approach--the name, the names taken by the bandmembers, the song titles. However, I was ultimately somewhat disappointed in this. After only a few listens, I didn't seem to be getting anything new out of it. I think a good record does that, giving repeated listens a value as you discover something new. But this album just left me flat after five or six listens.
Is the review positive or negative?
