Incredible. Even if I love a disc, I usually tire of it within a few listenings. Not the case with this music. It's layers and melodies seem to keep unfolding. This is a must have disc - no question about it. My only complaint is I have to wait for them to put out another disc!

This has to be one of my most spun CDs that I have purchased in the past month or so. That says a lot as I have bought 3 or 4 really awsome new CDs in the past month(Anything Box, Camouflage, ...). The music on this CD is really interesting, there are definately many layers to it. I like how the vocals are at time shorter and choppy. No ballads on this CD. The interesting use of vocals and the style of the singing really adds to the luster of the CD. I love songs like "Superman" with a very catchy intro and an awsome chorus to keep ya listening. "You wanna see me and / You wanna be me but / You don't know / What it takes to be me / What it takes to live a fantasy". With tracks like "Forward Reverse Universe", "Superman", "Drops of Sugar", and "Freedom" one can hardly go wrong.

Very highly recommended if you like catchy electronic music with has some meaning.

RAD MAN! I totally dig the cd. Its probably one of my most favorite cds ever. I have been a BT fan for over 5 years and let me tell you. This band is such a stretch into the work and style of BT. They create there own styles, there own beats, there own atmospheric blends. This cd is remarkable, the vocals are sick, the beats are dope.

If you like to dance, and you want something that will keep your head bobbing...... WBN is for you

RIGHT ON!!

This album is great. It's 100% new and original material, like nothing I've ever heard, but noticeable influences all over the board. These guys have a techno influence but they know how to use real instruments, which makes for some great synth-pop with a kind of organic feel.
The production is by far the most note worthy, it is done with artistry and a finely tuned ear. Perfect timing and many complex and fascinating layers, worthy of many listens, and a great example for aspiring producers everywhere. The lyrics are very original and, while they don't take themselves too seriously, they are delivered with feeling and a great sort of raw not over-produced voice.
If that isn't enough. I can't even believe that they do all this online, one guy in Ohio and one guy in Washington (state). What more can I say, I look forward to more from these guys.

I must say, this is not your run of the mill never ending techno CD. Quite the opposite! It takes the techno sound to a whole new level by having more of an emphasis on the vocals than most other artists. Take that, mix it in with sonds like "Superhero" and "Drops of Sugar" along with every other great song on this CD, and you have an amazing album that will give you endless hours of entertainment.

It's refreshing to hear electronic music with male vocals for a change. And these aren't your run-of-the-mill male vocals. Casey's breathy, silky smooth voice is layered perfectly over, through, and around Caesars' flawless production. An overall excellent and well-balanced CD perfect for anyone that's looking for an intelligent mix of pop and electronica.
