about

“The sheer force of the songs speak for themselves. Tracks like “Drowning in Shallow Days” ooze guitar riffs, while songs like “9:30 in the Afternoon” push, punish and generally make you remember what it means to have some rock with your roll. Slip in a few pop-influenced moments, a taste of rhythm and blues,,,,and you’ve got yourself one fine record.”
