totally sweet.......2006-04-13

J. Robbins writes some of the coolest lyrics I have heard. His vocabulary is really expansive. He writes lyrics based upon the way words sound (which is really cool). The words that he uses fit the music so well. The music is really put together well. If you want to listen to something with great groove (in a sweet Shiner essence) you've come to the right album!

Genius...They give you so much more..........2005-11-30

J. Robbins is a master of hard rock with the DC mathy style. His voice is one of the most unique I've heard in a long time. I only wish that they could have kept the energy going, I know that their next album would have blown this one away...Ah but Channels migh fill the void. Also one of the best live performers ever, if only the show I saw had more people who understood that they were seeing. Anyhow, don't let this gem slip away...

Outstanding.......2003-10-08

The first half of this album is pretty much flawless. Actually, more than that, I'd say through Paper Crowns. After that, it kind of gets old, until Dear Hilary. Still, this a great CD and definitely worth the purchase price. The best tracks are Outside the Aviary, A Lexicon, A Song With No Words, Paper Crowns, and the Surgeon's House. Dear Hilary is also good, and the idea behind it is, I think, a good one. It's my favorite of the Scott Richter songs, although I haven't heard all of them. The best part of the album, not surprisingly, is the bass, but the rest of it is good too. Also, I'm sure if you're here you don't need to hear this, but Jawbox is worth it to check out as well.

Cool........2003-07-01

BURNING AIRLINES rocks. Their second effort IDENTIKIT, is a cool mix of punk, pop, and rock that is both inventive and crisply original. Great harmonies mesh sweetly with cruchy guitar, distorted bass, and metronomicly askew drums to create short, punchy songs that are both complex and easy on the ears. This is one band who knows how to rock with authority and both CDs in their arsenal are highly recommended. Way better than anything mainstream, this is one act who have a true identity and they have wrapped it up for you in a nice little kit.
