Wow-wee.......2006-03-14

This is the first Three Mile Pilot album that i have gotten, and it is only an EP. I have become very irritated at how hard this stuff is to find, and frankly dont agree with the prices on amazon, so i have been holding out. So this is the first album by them that i have heard in its entirety.
That being said, this stuff is great, i was introduced to them because i am a Black Heart Procession fan and saw them in the "Customers who bought this also bought this" section of amazon and checked them out.
Basically, i am conviced that everything that Pall Jenkins touches turns to gold (not to mention Tobias Nathaniel), because to this day i have not been disappointd with anything, and continually get pleasent surprises when i read the credits of albums that i buy. He seems to have his hand in everything.
For being a short EP, this is actually pretty long and is never dull for a moment. I would not consider any song on the album anywhere close to being mediocre, let alone bad. This EP is incredible, and i will continue to look for more. I would recomend this to anyone, especially anyone who is a Black Heart Procession fan.

A bit dissapointing.......1999-10-27

I admit my love of 3 Mile Pilot is fickle. "Another Desert Another Sea" is without a doubt the most amazing indie rock album I have ever heard. I've managed to get many of my friends hooked on it and we're all left with a sense of "why aren't these guys more known?" It is unfairly hard to find so if you see the red artwork don't pass it up. Unfortunately, I've been dissapointed with their other efforts. Tho' on "Another Desert" the unorthodox bass / guitar parts mesh perfectly, they don't seem to work as well for me here. Like "Chief Assassin..", the songs tend to be just a little too tragically minor for my tastes. On a positive note, their version of Brian Eno's "By This River" contains the hearstopping beauty found on "Another Desert" and just that song makes this EP worth the purchase. The lo-fi "Ship To Bangladesh" and the harmonies on "Worry" also make this a worthy buy.

this band moves me.......1999-05-17

"on a ship to bangladesh" is a very interesting song that mixes very colorful, emotional chords over a straight forward hip hop beat. this song was recorded with a drum machine and differs from the amazingly abstract drumming from thier previous albums but still keeps me locked into the many layers of the song. this album has texture and is real. i don't know if it's for everyone but i recomend checking it out, it's very creative.

Truly Unique.......1999-03-28

I'm probably the biggest Three Mile Pilot fan. This short album that contains 5 songs are very flabbergasting. Songs such as "Wahn" with that weird water background sound. My favorite Tokyo Static with nice piano from Toby. Make sure to check out The Blackheart Procession.

if you dont own this, you better get it!!!.......1999-02-10

this california band is amazing. they've been around for quite some time, and have a lot of releases. many of which are unfortunantly out of print. this has piano, drums, guitar, and bass. pall has a very interesting voice, its good just interesting. it is a very mellow record, which is somewhat of a suprise for this record label, but in this case it is a welcomed suprise. it also features a brian eno cover. if you like this you should look for a record by the black heart procession ( a band featuring the singer/guitar player and the keyboard player from 3 mile pilot and the drummer from clikatat ikatowi) it is one of my favorite records
