I have to say, I am quite impressed by this CD. The songs are passionate and true; and very catchy/memorable. A lot of bands coming out these days all sound the same, but The Baskervilles definitely stand apart from most. They are original and creative, and have truly assembled a magnificent album. There are several musical styles represented here, all molding into the original sound of the band. Definitely pick up this CD! You'll enjoy it for years to come.

Hearing music like one wonders waht could be better sounding? Not much, damn these guys and gal are real good, tight melodies B&S style muscianship and discreet vocals all make for one very fine listen. This band has maybe what fifteen original songs under their belt, if you include their most recent spectacular 'Midnight' EP. We need more output from these New Yorkers. Heavily influenced by British bands like 60's Kinks, 70's Jam & american indie-pop, can't say enough good things about the Baskervilles get this & their EP, you will enjoy.

It's rare to find a band that can balance great hooks and intriguing arrangements. Production by Mitch Easter helps. Like his best projects, Let's Active and R.E.M., the Baskervilles songs are over brimming with melody and substance. The lyrics remind me of classic Kinks. The album gets better and better every time I listen to it. Highlights - "Day One, Amanda Year" and the spooky "That Is The Scene".

Dudes, guess what!!! Rob Keith is my school teacher. No, seriously. I'm not joking. He's my computer teacher!!! HE ROCKS!!! Seriously consider buying this CD. It is amazing. I love the song, "A Free Show In Battery Park". This CD is awesome.

Great album and a great live act. You won't be able to see Syd Barrett but you can see the Baskervilles.

I have listened to this album over and over and love it more and more every time. I have also given this CD to many friends who also think it's one of the best CDs to come out in years.

I have also been fortunate enough to see several live shows. The band is so engaging and the vibe is electric. Definitely a must see live band.

I've been following these guys ever since they started out as a garage rock band in Tampa, Florida. They have outdone themselves with this release. This was one of my favorite releases of the year. I can't get enough of it.

I read about this band on a pop music mailnig list, and just knew I had to check them out. This CD is probably gonig to be in my top 5 of 2004! I love it! It is rare that you find an album with so many excellent songs, all catchy and memorable and clever. If you like Belle and Sebastian or The Beatles, this CD is a must-have! 5 stars for sure -- each and every song!
