5.0 out of 5 stars Rollin' out the hits..., July 20, 2006

Mira has produced another wonderful sounding album (think the shimmering guitars and intelligently-written music of Radiohead with a pensive Annie Lennox singing) to follow their terrific album, _Apart_. It's not as dark as _Apart_, though it's certainly not "Shiny Happy People", either. Mira is a greatly underrated band, and it will hit high on the alternative charts with one of its more upbeat tracks. If it doesn't happen with this album, it will with the next. They're too good not to be very widely known.

3.0 out of 5 stars disappointing, October 5, 2005

As a follow-up to the 5-star effort "Apart", this is a very lackluster collection. I love Regina's voice- the way it can build in energy and power while maintaining a smooth, ethereal tonality (listen to "Space" on the Apart CD). That driving quality is lacking in this collection. I don't know much about mixing music, but it seems to me that the band overshadows the vocals on every track. Adding to the problem, Regina's singing seems overly subdued, and her vocal pitch on this CD is noticeably lower than previous efforts. After such a long wait, the finished product is very disappointing.

2.0 out of 5 stars Nowhere near as good...., February 23, 2006

As APART, which I loved. It's similar in tempo to Apart, but lacks the mood and sense of drama which really set it... Apart, lol. "Long Division" and "Heavenly Slumber" are nice tracks, but I found myself not being able to pay attention to most of the CD, it just doesnt grab you and say "listen to me". And somehow, the production value seems lowered on this CD, nothing stands out, be it a guitar hook or a particularly soothing vocal... it's all jumbled together and lost somehow. It has some nice moments, but if you want to listen to Mira, Apart is the one to get.
