It has nice elements, but they don't fit together for me.

Summarizing my impressions, I would say that this band has a lot of potential. I like that a band is willing to try stuff, and go outside of the box, but I think that a band needs to have a box to go outside of. A cake isn't a cake if it is just a pile of decorated icing.

The biggest improvement they could make, however, is to replace the singer. He makes 90%+ of their music unlistenable. slim brought up the best word to describe the vocals - mopey. Who wants to listen to that? I know that slim was referring to someone else's characterization, and it doesn't reflect his opinion.

Thanks for listening/playing along Eric- was a great addition !

Thanks Dizzy, this was fun. I'll take second. No shame in losing to Radiohead superfan JM3.

Spotify is one of the best things to happen to music since the Gramophone. Give it a shot imo.

Thanks, the ones I found seemed like they had low audio quality for some reason.
