Title: Great lyrics, great hooks, great album
Review: They may not be critics' darlings, but this cd does not have a bad song on it. The lyrics have an edge *and* are also thoughtful and searching, which sets them apart from the typical "impressed with their own cleverness" or "I have more problems than you" lyrics that seem to be popular with most bands. The musicianship is very solid and the arrangements interesting and more complex than might first be apparent. Every single song has hook that grabs the listener. This is an album you won't do wrong with.
