4.0 out of 5 stars Great soundtrack for the fall, October 9, 2003

By	A. Webster (Boston) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is the first Ladybug Transistor album that I have heard, so I can't compare it with any earlier releases. With that said, I think it's good. Track 5 "Choking on Air" is by far my favorite song off this album. Its a very visual song (if that makes any sense) but I think you have to hear it to understand.

If you are not familiar with this band, I would compare it to Belle & Sebastian's newest record "Dear Catastrophe Waitress" - both have a variety of singers (both male and female) with that sunny 70's AM rock feel. I really love Sasha Bell's voice, so I'm also planning on getting Essex Green's "Long Goodbye" to hear her contributions to that cd.

I rated this CD 4 stars out of 5 because I enjoy it and it definately has many strong songs, but there are a few songs that I'm not entirely fond of. Still, 4 out of 5 is good!

5.0 out of 5 stars The Pastoral Sound of Pop Music , December 23, 2005

By	Koppenhagen, Thomas "Thomas Koppenhagen" (Germany) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

5.0 out of 5 stars Don't miss it!!!!, February 10, 2004

By	Matteo (Duluth, MN USA) - See all my reviews

Great band, great athmosphere, this is for sure an album that you can't miss if you are an indie music lover! The mosaic of delicate sounds, deep voice and excellent strings background make this album more better than Belle and Sebastian last record.
The Ladybug athmosphere remind me the black and white french movies from the 60s. Fantastic!!!!!
