I can't say much for the music - definititely not my type, but this is not the Blue October of "Hate Me" and "Into the Ocean" fame. This is some indie-techno sounding band with the same name... very deceptive if you ask me.

I see that somebody who posted a review is writing only because they were confused between Blue October bands. Hmm, I doubt they listened to the music by this, the original Blue October, before they posted a review.

It should be noted that Blue October from the UK had been releasing CD's before the Texas rock band had poked their heads out yet. The album "Incoming" was Blue October's debut release (and still my personal favorite) and was released in 1996, before the rock band was around. "One Day Silver, One Day Gold" is the 3rd album. Also, the comment saying "this kind of music has been done before" is a little bit strange, coming from a fan of a rock band who plays the same old rock sound that has been done in America for the last few decades, as if THAT approach is particularly unique.

Anyway, I'm not hear to argue, but would recommend posting reviews about the bands that are pertinent to your own tastes and interests. If you're a fan of melodic, smooth, electronic pop music, this is right up your ally. If you're looking for a different Blue October that plays typical rock music, then I wouldn't expect you to like this, the original Blue October. Then again, if you're just a fan of good music, no matter what the style, I bet you'll enjoy giving this a listen.

Bummer I didn't catch the "UK" in the band name here. It's not on the album cover. I bet most of what they sell is to people who mistook them for the Texas band. I suppose I could return it, but the whole hassle and shipping costs makes it less attractive than using the CDs as coasters. (I also screwed up and bought "incoming."

Pure cheese. What happened this album isnt anywhere near the other albums by them. If youre thinking of buying blue october. Dont buy this one. Buy incoming thats there best. I still hope they come back on there next album.

we all know who the real Blue October is and this music from the Blue(UK), is just more 80's, Erasure type music, that's been done over and over. No originality what's so ever. Nice try!!
