Axiomatic is a FANTASTIC cd well worth purchasing. Disregard any negative reviews and trust me when I say this album is amazing. I have all Taxiride's music and was hesitant in ordering the Axiomatic cd because there were some negative reviews about the album here on Amazon....but I ordered it anyway and was glad that I did. There are some well written, catchy songs here. I especially like the songs, "You Gotta Help Me", and, "Oh Yeah". Seriously, I can listen to the entire album over and over without skipping to a song. Some may say that this album isn't like the older Taxiride...but I disagree. These are the same melodic, well written tunes that we expect from these talented guys and YES...they did deliver the goods. Aussie style. Now if they would get that live Electrophobia dvd released to the public, I would be even happier. I have exposed many music lovers to Taxiride and have yet to meet anyone who doesn't love them. We can only hope that they keep level heads, no egos, and keep making albums. I will continue to support them....Money well spent!

Having heard and loved both Imaginate and Garage Mahal, I have to say that Axiomatic is a new direction for Taxiride. And it's a great one too. While the songs and the general feel of the record are far more intense, I find that Jason's voice has never sound better and the harmonies are well in place. And the band has never sounded tighter.

You can tell that here's a band who are deeply influenced by 70's rock and they indulge this passion while maintainig acontemporary production and stylistc edge. I love Oh Yeah and What Can I Say. Axiomatic is not a singles album it's an experiece. I can't wait for the next album.

Sorry, but it's a total deception. Isn't a bad album but nothing compares to Imaginate & Garage Mahal. Taxiride is my favorite band but this album contains only 3 or 4 songs with the Taxiride level.

Taxiride's first two albums are incredible. This one was a big disappointment. I would love to see this bank make a comeback, but unfortunately I don't see that happening.

Taxiride showed such amazing promise on the album Garage Mahal. That was simply one of the best pop/rock albums that year, and most in the know figured this band for a great future. But trust me when I say, everything that Garage Mahal was, this album is NOT. The writing is so weak, and the change in overall direction is just sad. These guys have found thier softer side and it is really quite bad. It is a shame.....but don't waste your money!

I figure a half good cd by Taxiride is better than most full cds of other groups in their pop/rock genre. This cd is more of a mellow affair with keyboards playing a major part. It sounds like they wanted to try something different this time out.

Some of the songs seem to sound incomplete. Nation is probably the strongest song on the cd;Oh Yeah is also noteworthy; You gotta help me sounds unfinished; tripper red I don't get at all!

Imaginate and Garage Mahal cds had less flaws than this cd so get those first if you are new to Taxiride. Axiomatic needs a few listens to understand; I disliked the whole cd at first, but it does grow on you. Try the new cd by The Duke (member of Stuck Mojo). It is similar to the best of Taxiride which doesn't make sense in a way if you ever heard Stuck Mojo(rap/rock) but it is a very mature album with a good message and strong songs
