5.0 out of 5 stars From bedknocks to broomsticks, April 5, 2002

By	Zach McGregor (Frisco, Colorado USA) - See all my reviews

This CD is sooo gooood, i just had to write another review for it. I mean if you don't buy this CD you will never know how far you could have gone in life. This CD explains some of the harder things in life, it shows you how to get through life in a action packed fun filled way. Smoke that.

5.0 out of 5 stars jump, jive, November 13, 2001

By	Zach McGregor (Frisco, Colorado USA) - See all my reviews

The raincoats, what can i say I love em. I think the best way to describe their music is like this "soul inspiring anthems that get in yer head and stick there like grip tape" There is just something about listing to girls who can't sing and are even worse at playing.

3.0 out of 5 stars Too much hype?
Yeah this cd is pretty interesting. I just don't know how special a band like the Raincoats is. At moments it approaches perfection, but then the singing just utterly ruins it. Read more

1.0 out of 5 stars ummm... maybe I am in left feild picking daisy's but.....
I just didn't vibe with this band. They sort of sound like 'The Ex' which is a GREAT BAND (check them out) but they lost me with their signing. Read more
