5 out of 5 stars High-quality heartache........2001-07-17

I was going to write somethin flowery about this album to get you to buy it, but I really can't do it justice. It's a beautiful record full of moments that toe the line between steely and sentimental. Singer James Diers has an undeniable skill for blending pie-eyed observations and cliches in with dark witticisms to create lyrics that seem simultaneously innocent and wicked. While a true appreciation for the lyrics may be something that seeps in gradually, Dave King's ridiculous talent and creativity at the drums will be the immediate grab of this album. As always, the best pop and rock drummers are the jazz ones. His work behind the kit elevates this album above so many others. I can't really come up with a band to compare these guys to; I'll just say that if you like good hooks, great lyrics, and appreciate fantastic drumwork, buy this album.

4 out of 5 stars This is a fine, fine record........1999-03-23

I say again: This is a fine, fine record
