5 out of 5 stars Whats going on Chris?.......2003-11-24

I cannot for the life of me understand how this guy went from singing in industrial metal bands like Revolting Cocks and Ministry with Allen Jourgenson to doing music like this. It confounds me. Well, whatever. I will still be listening to this for years, while the industrial thing goes away.It is a very good album and I would recommend it to anyone who is a fan of Bowie, or Scott Walker or even Suede. Its kind of glammy, but this guy is definitely not a glam rocker. What impressed me the most was the sophistication and depth of his lyrics. Definitely a deep thinker. The only complaint I have is that he could have toned down the drums a little bit. They are a little too harsh and industrial in contrast to the lushness of the rest of the album. Thumbs up.

5 out of 5 stars better and better.......2001-05-14

This album is even more realized than the Ultimate Seaside Companion was, which is saying quite a bit.

One of the greatest voices around. No question. Up there with Bowie and Scott Walker.

I won't go into his industrial past with KMFDM and the like, except to say that that's what got me into Connelly's music, and I havn't listened to KMFDM in 5 years, but still listen to Connelly.

It's pop. Great vocals. Good songs. Pretty. Emphatic. Heartfelt. Bowiesque. Sorry, but it is. I like Bowie, though. It's a compliment.

Buy the thing. The songs are quite good, too..
