5.0 out of 5 stars Synthpop at its best!, April 10, 2006

This is an excellent follow-up to Ashes, Ashes and, although it's hard to top songs like "Indigent," "Jupiter" and "Wake," this CD stands in the very rare space of an album where every single song is good! I dare you not to sing along with "Kiss on the Telephone," "Run," "When It's Dark I'm Five Again" and "Transmission." Jason, Darla and Fox have created a masterpiece that is a must have for every synthpop (and non-synthpop!) fan. This is a brilliant album and has become one of my favorites of all time!

Yes Ashes Ashes was superb but, this is how a band evolves!! The addition of Fox on guitar (especially live) is wonderful!! (yes I know Joey plays the guitar on one song). however, Guitar added to synthpop is a match made in heaven. I wouldn't even consider This music synthpop in the pure sense of the word. take one listen to the title track and tell me this shouldn't be played on indie rock stations across the US. I wish that once the new baby gets a little older and these guys can play out live more that they could add live drums to their act. I can see it happening!!

4.0 out of 5 stars Moody, mellow, but a must have, February 20, 2006

Kiss on the Telephone, S.O.S., and Parallel Universe are excellent slower synthpop songs. This CD is more moody and although I enjoy it, Ashes Ashes is definitely better. Nonetheless, it is a must have for those of us who love bands like Iris, De/Vision, Neuropa, etc.
