To-Hell-With Ezine Review - 5th August 2005
Normally when i review an album by an unsigned artist, i try to find something positive to say even if its not my cup of tea. and my mum always taught me that if you don’t have anything good to say don’t say it, unfortunately thats not something you can really do in a review!
This is guitar music by numbers, a tired glam-indie plod and I find the lyrics cliched and often try for that quirky english style of songwriting but fall short. It's also far too long with 15 songs clocking in at a massive 1hr 13mins. It seems there’s alot of filler which i find over cooked.
On the positive side he has a good kind of David Bowie / David Byrne vocal, ‘Missing’ is an acoustic ode to a lover gone missing and ‘Friends’ is a cheery fun way to end the album.
