This review is from: Red Light (Audio CD)

This is a low-key album that produces a calming effect. "On and On" is a standout track and received a lot of play on XM Radio's Loft. The backup singer, whoever he or she is, has a powerful voice. It's a great contrast to the almost mumbled, soft vocals of the lead singer. Overall the music reminds me of The Sea and Cake's mellower tracks, but without the loopy, Jerry Garcia-esque riffs. Mission's Web site also compares the band to Iron & Wine and Nick Drake. I can see a bit of Nick Drake, particularly his darker "Pink Moon" stuff.
