Editorial Reviews

1st time on vinyl! Limited to 2,000. Often sounding like a much more excited Spoon (w/ a Casio), these are loveably unconventional short pop songs

4.0 out of 5 stars don't take it that seriously, October 20, 2004

I am not going to try and compare this to anything, or try to brag about all the cool indie bands I have heard of... I am not going to say much except this album, in my opinion, is damn catchy. At first listen I was not totally impressed, but a few songs caught my attention and my laziness to skip the other songs turned into a good thing because it made me realize I should not have given up so soon on the rest of the album. This album is not groundbreaking or anything, but its a great listen, and I think "In Green" is a really pretty song. I stumbled onto this cd by accident, but i feel lucky i did. I think its that sort of album that you just have on when you are in a good mood and it doesnt weigh your mind, there isnt anything to ponder, ya just enjoy it.

3.0 out of 5 stars i like this band, December 28, 2004

having heard 3 songs, i went out and bought the album. i was quite surprised (and disappointed) to realize that the rest of the songs were almost NOTHING like the ones i had heard (2nd Gun, In Green, and Trunk of My Car, incidentally). consistent listening allowed me to appreciate some of the sounds going on (notably Firebombing London and Goodbye, Casio), but i have to say i would like this disc a lot more if the songs were along the lines of 2nd Gun or In Green.

in short, there seems to be a lot of potential here, but only about half the time does volcano, i'm still excited get there.

Hi- when I first considered buying this I read the reviews here which went both ways but listened to the sample tracks..I like what I heard. Listening to the full length album was fun and entertaining. There are a lot of changes...unpredictable harmonies, tempos, little things in music that makes this fun to listen to over and over again. There are only about 3 tracks I skip through regularly..mostly short instrumentals, and out of 16 tracks that's not bad.
