2 out of 5 stars A Ponderous Ache.......2000-08-20

On their two full length CDs and handful of E.P.s, Pedro the Lion have fully explored life through the prism of a flexible, humanistic Christianity. Singer-guitarist-songwriter David Bazan has never let dogma contaminate his artistic empathy; there's nothing haranguing about his love of Jesus. Nothing has changed with Progress. The songs are solid. Yet on the heels of Winners Never Quit earlier this year, these four tunes showcase a melancholy that borders monotony. Bazan's voice, pleasant as it is, has a ponderous ache. He needs lighter settings than those he's given himself here, or more uptempo tracks to vary the pace.

4 out of 5 stars just when you thought it might get a little happier.............2000-08-08

the first song on this album is quite possibly the most depressing song that i have ever heard in my life, but it still provides something more than just pain, as it leaves you with some warmth. david once again shows us that he can feel anyone's pain and is willing to share it with all of us. the ep shouls be purchased, if only for this one song. the second song is also more of a throw-back to whole and the only reason i feel secure, their first two releases. if you found their last release a bit on the poppy side, then this should give you more of a picture of what pedro the lion can churn out, even if it does fail to provide more than two new tracks. in short, if you like the slower side of pedro the lion, then this album is worth bying, but if you enjoyed winners never quit more than any of the others, then this may not be a wise purchase.
