3 out of 5 stars Nice, entertaining at times but a bit too thin to my ears........2003-12-16

This is a good Indie Rock album, nothing more. This is by no means essential. However it is worth buying if you like hearing varied rock albums that can't be pigeonhold into a genre(Indie Rock is a very vague term to me). The band themselves see their sound containing elements of Led Zeppelin, Shudder to Think and My Bloody Valentine. This is vaguely helpful but, to it's credit, the album has it's own personality.
The songs themselves can be entertaining, but to me they don't pack an exciting or emotional OOOOMMMPPPPHHH factor. Some of the songs seem a little undeveloped, kind of minimalistic and don't really go anywhere further than where they were in the first 30 seconds (such as 'Pitbulls'). Also the album lasts only 29 minutes. The first track ('Agnus Dei') is merely voice; a kind of monastic chorus, this may not be your cup of tea. It sets the scene for the album well, but like half of the songs is only nice at best. Tracks two ('A Practical Joke') and three ('Peace in That') are more traditional songs, with cool sounding guitar and track 2 is sung by a woman with a beautiful voice. Track 4 (Evolution) is one of the short pieces that doesn't really have an impact on me. Track 5 ('The Art of Reason), like tracks 2,3 + 4 is another guitar song and it is one of the good tracks. Track 6 ('Gloria in Excelsis Deo') is an interesting electronic(it sounds electronic anyway)loop drone piece, this is a track which doesn't evolve very much but it does have an eerie quality. Track 7 is 'Pitbulls'. Track 8 + 9 ('Focus' and 'Life after Life Everlasting') go together in my opinion, a light guitar piece goes into a hypnotic My Bloody Valentine-esque track. Track 10 ('Transmorph') is probably the weakest track, that has no effect on me.

In conclusion, tracks 2,3,5,8+9 are very good. 6 and 7 are nice, unusual but not very substantial and 1,4 and 10 don't really do anything for me.
