What else can I say? It hits you with a catchy radio tune "Hey You" and moves on from there. The rest includes slylishly written tracks, from the hard rockin "Living With The Static" and its irresistable opening riff, to slower melodies like "Monterrey". Dovetail Joint fans will be in heaven knowing that all they love is still there in this reincarnation known as Ivory Wire, and new listeners will be turned on instantly. This band ought to be more well known, if they could just get more people to hear this cd. Take a chance on this album either here or anywhere else you can find it new, you won't be disappointed.

If I were to try and compare another well known band to Ivory wire's sound it would be Foo fighter. Not to say these guys don't have thier own unique sound but majority of thier songs are tempered rock similar to FF.Thats were the similarity ends. Infact I like this release better than the any of the foo fighter releases. These guys know how to get thier money out of thier gear.This release is stripped of all silly anticks and garbs most bands are using these days in attemps to gain the publics notice, which is why this gem has fallen through the cracks of public view.

to be competley honest, i did not want to like this album. But then i saw them live and instantly bought the record. The recorded version was better than live. I would highly recomend this album to anyone who apreciates well structured, intelligent song wrighting, Also there is a power to it that chicago has not seen since the smashing pumpkins.

This is a fantastic album. A friend of mine gave me a copy of it as a gift and told me it was from the guitarist and singer of Dovetail joint. I had heard of Dovetail Joint but had never listened to any of their stuff. Not knowing what to expect I let the cd sit around for a few days before I listened to it. Needless to say when I finally played it I was blown away. This is an awesome album. Every song is really good and the overall sound of the band is HUGE! This is got to be one of the best musical surprises I have ever gotten. I hope this album leads the band to bigger and better things as they deserve it. This is the music that should be on the radio these days and not all of the other sound alike stuff that is.
