2.0 out of 5 stars interesting, April 20, 2006

By	ajx40 "IWNH" (Houston) - See all my reviews

have had this cd since it came out but never listened to it. It has some truly interesting work on it. Most of it is sort of shoegazer downtempo but with a bit more punch. If the songs were trimmed down some or the vocalist did some more with his melody then the songs wouldn't drag.

4.0 out of 5 stars Serious music by a band serious about music., February 17, 1999

By A Customer

I've heard the phrase "Post New Wave" associated with 12RODS- mebbe they called themselves that, mebbe someone else did. It's an apt description. They showed me it was possible to have a loud, strong sound and still be melodious. These guys are dedicated to their music, and put alot of effort and emotion into their songs.

5.0 out of 5 stars Musical Bliss, April 25, 1998

By A Customer

12 Rods has found the perfect musical balance between the technical prowess of Rush and the pop genius of The Cure. I have recently re-discovered this EP and it has hardly left my CD changer. If you get a chance to see them perform, be sure to do so; they are even better live than on disc.
