I picked this up as an impulse buy from the local independent record store (Record and Tape Traders in the Baltimore metro). The first 15 seconds or so had me regretting my purchase, but it turns out it was just a bad intro because the rest of the song was pretty good. The display at the story compaired People in Planes to Muse. It's a fairly accurate comparrison. I'd like to hear a little more before I form an opinion on the band overall. It was a good effort, but probably no smash singles or anything like that. I would think People in Planes to be worth checking out as an opening band for sure, and in time this could turn out to be a pretty nice little band. They just need to find their groove. If you see the EP around pick it up so you can say you heard of them second (I obviously heard of them first), especially if you can find it for 99 cents. They are also offering it online for $5, which is a pretty good deal. Look for the full length out in Spring 06!

Just wanted to say that I agree with the other guy about the first 15 seconds. It's enough to make you want to take the CD out and crack it in two. The rest of the EP is quite refreshing and catchy as hell. I defy you to listen to this EP only once. I found it at a local record/cd shop in the free bin. Go to the site www.peopleinplanes.com it's $5 but more than worth it. ENJOY..

I actually bought this CD after seeing the bass player interviewed in Bass Player magazine and decided to snag this EP for $1.99 at Gramophone Shop in New Canaan, CT. The first song is great after the lame intro, and the 3 that follow are good, but i question some of the chord changes and originality in this. Very good, but nothing spectacular.

This is a great intro to the band. They are definitely better live, but this early work is refreshing and innovative, with some great songwriting to boot

I saw these guys open for Bravery, and they stole the show. They aren't quite as good on this recording as they are live, but I'm sold, and you will be too after giving it a listen...
