Title: Haven't been able to put this CD down...
Review: I first heard Snowden when a local radio DJ played "Black Eyes." I was instantly intrigued and bought the album shortly thereafter. Upon hearing it, I wasn't sure what to think. It was unlike any other band I've heard; infectious basslines, energetic drumming, and endearing, though somewhat off-key vocals.Comparisons can be made with Interpol, but I find Snowden to be more upbeat and catchy. Whereas Interpol has more of a minimalist sound, Snowden simply has more sound, period.The album quickly grew on me to the point where the CD never left my player, and 6 months later I still listen to it regularly. Anti-Anti is, in my mind, the best album of 2006.
Is the review positive or negative?
