"Goodbye".......2005-12-25

The song Goodbye was written as Plankeye was on the edge of breaking up. I saw Plankeye at C-Stone '98 and I was expecting to see the entire line-up but I saw Eric B. doing all the guitar/vocals and Wayne Everett (SF59, Lassie Foundation, etc.) on drums. Plankeye played the song Goodbye but Eric said that was the 2nd time they had ever played it and he was actually crying while playing (I have it on vhs). I was just noting that Goodbye was written as their break-up song but then the band decided to stay together and record another album (Relocation). That's my $.10

Still Plankeye.......2005-04-05

Okay, so Plankeye did go through a slight evolution of sound when Scott Silletta (original guitariast and lead vocalist) and Adam Ferry (original drummer) left; this album is a little softer then some past Plankeye stuff, but honestly I felt a little bit of this trend from previous album (The One and Only). But I was always drawn to Plankeye because (1)their deep, impactful lyrics (the songs always say something very important in a lyrically beautiful way) and (2) their musical unpredictability (the songs don't follow the traditional verse, chorus, verse, chorus format, and the instruments never do what pop musicians have trained the listener to expect). Those important elements are still present in Relocation. Not only that, but Eric Balmer and Luis Garcia are obviously talented musicians and songwriters who made obvious contributions to all the previous albums as well as this one. Their efforts should not be belittled or discounted because some people wish to live in a static world where every band sounds exactly the same from album to album.

This album has a lot to offer. "I Can't Complain" and "Indivisble" are great, thoughtful songs with steady rhythms. "You Are For Me" is a beautifully simple love song. "Say Now That You're Sorry" is upbeat and fun with some solid advice for relationships. "When It Comes" is kind of like a love song for the listener. And "Goodbye" is of course awesome, a ballad anthem for life changes. Maybe you aren't getting the solid grunge with the occasionally seasoning of blues that was prevalent in albums like "Spill" and "The Spark" (though "Break of Dawn" and "You Got It" are pretty good throwbacks to classic Plankeye), but what Plankeye stands for -faith, love, creativity,etc.- did not change when Scott and Adam moved on to other things.

I like this CD..........2005-02-09

I know many people don't like this CD because it is not the the whole band but there is something about this CD that is good if you look past the fact it is only two of them. I loved the whole band Plankeye too and I love this CD. Although I would never claim it to be my favorite I do enjoy it. I bought it mostly for the song Goodbye because I really liked watching the whole band perform it live before it was just the two members. I ended up actually liking the rest of the CD. I think you have to get over the fact it is not a rock CD it is a softer Plankeye for contemporary. Listen to the clips or try and get your hands on it before you buy it becuase I think this may be one CD people like or dislike.

Awwe, good times good times.......2004-04-30

So this CD is wonderful..I forgot about the song "Goodbye" until I heard it again watching an online commercial for the last episodes of FRIENDS.. It made me really upset..Normally I would not be sad over a TV show ending..It happens all the time..But the song "Goodbye" made me feel like a part of my heart was being stolen from a sitcom? Listen to the sample..It lasts 29 seconds..But you'll wish you had a soundtrack to your life and "Goodbye" was the song played during the end titles.. Of course this is just one of the songs on this CD... the rest I feel just as passionate about
