4.0 out of 5 stars Spend A Rainy Day Alone With Scout, January 22, 2000

Scout's lead singer is very Mazzy Starr-esque. Her low voice is enthralling and tends to put you in a trance. This album is perfect on those days when you just want to be alone with your thoughts. Scout's music draws you in with it's passion and intensity. Excellent first album!

5.0 out of 5 stars Everything you need, February 17, 2000

I finally figured out why I just can't stop listening to this record. There are so many records in my collection that have one or two great tunes. And then there are a few dozen perfect album sides. But there's a relatively short list of records that I can throw in the player without needing to keep the remote nearby to skip over the occasional dud. This record definitely makes that shortlist.

Whether it's the Beatle-esk pop tunes like "Let me down easy" and "Rumor" or sadder sweeter tunes like "On this perfect day" or "Clutch", all the songs hit the mark both in their own right and as an outstanding collection of tunes.

5.0 out of 5 stars Subtle, Poignant, AMAZING!, July 24, 2001

I picked up this album without ever having heard of the band before. I listened with growing interest as each song played and realized I had stumbled upon a priceless gem. This album will forever rank in my top 10.

For an initial album, this group has all the advanced music skills available at their fingertips to produce music of superb quality for years to come. Their ability leans toward the expression of poignant pain and the lure of love while avoiding the trite Gothic lets-all-just-die themes. "There I Go Now" is a beautiful love song that will bring the hardest man to tears in recalling an absent love.

Everyone I play this CD for loves it. Period. You absolutely cannot go wrong with this group.
