Title: If this qualifies as one of the best of the year...
Review: Then indeed it was a HORRIBLE year for music. This is one of the worst albums I've ever had the misfortune of having to listen to. The singer - better to call him a blatherskite - does nothing but mumblespeak nonsense. There are a thousand bands like this playing small venues and bars all over, yet THIS is singled out as one of the BEST albums of 2005??!? After this cd was over I promptly took it out of the player and flipped it in the trash. What a waste. That anyone could listen to this cd more than once confounds me. The singer is nothing but a poor man's poor man's David Lowery (minus any ability to write clever lyrics). It just goes to show that just because some people can turn on an amp, have cds pressed, and manage to get bookings doesn't mean you have any talent.
Is the review positive or negative?
