5 out of 5 stars Love it!!!.......2005-10-19

Amazing cd by an amazing band, although the sound has changed a tad bit from the first two releases, still an awesome album. Any Crash Test Dummies fan will be satasified! Get this one!!

4 out of 5 stars Great Album!.......2005-09-24

Although the sound of this album has changed a bit from the first two releases, it still is amazing. When I first purchased this album a few weeks ago, it was kind of a disappointment. But I kept listening and it actually isn't so much different from the first two except for more guitar use. Overall, the lyrics are awesome and Brad Robert's voice is amazing on here, defenently buy this one!

5 out of 5 stars Remember, each CD is a little different.......2005-08-12

Many people were disappointed in this album since it wasn't exactly like God Shuffled His Feet. However, the two albums are altogether different, and one cannot expect each CTD album to be like the next one.

This one features some interesting songs. My personal favorites are the fourth, sixth, ninth, and tenth tracks. Each are a little different.

The first five tracks are rather upbeat songs, but are heavier than those on the GSHF album. As in the typical CTD fashion, they concentrate on offbeat topics (for songs), such as getting a tooth pulled or the life of a worm. The second song, which deals with the tooth getting pulled, was the video that caused a controversey on MTV many years ago.

The sixth song has a very dark undercurrent, but the lyrics are wonderful. How many songs deal with giving the advice not to stick your tongue on a stop sign when it's very very cold out?

The seventh song has more of a country feel, and the eighth is more like the first few.

The ninth track is wonderful. It's a reflection on just sitting around at home and is a slower song. The tenth song is amazing and is a take on a love song, which is in a way a rarity for CTD. The soothing baritone vocals add to the effect of the message.

Track eleven is back to the mold of the first part of the CD, and goes back to the recurring CTD theme of country life. The twelfth one is slower and deals with Brad Roberts reflecting on first grade. Since I tend to remember the exact details of my life (such as who sat next to me in art duirng first grade), I can relate to this track.

Don't expect GSHF for style, but expect a quality album that you will listen to over and over again from this one.

5 out of 5 stars Great funky fun music.......2005-05-26

I love the quirky yet deep lyrics and music of CTD. This album is almost as good as GSHF - buy that one first if you have to choose.

2 out of 5 stars Not Good.......2004-11-21

Writing as a big fan of previous release, God Shuffled his feet, this is a big let down. It's an even greater disappointment, considering that I waited 8 years from its release date to finally sample its fruit. All that anticipation, every day of those 8 long years, for this prolix attempt to pass this cd off as art? Mind you, I'm as pretentious as the next guy, but there are some things I can't even pretend to get. Shout out to Robert Schumann though.
