Most of the attention will go out to Dan Thomas, the singer. If you see him you’ll directly compare him with Brian Molko. His voice also sounds a bit like Brian’s, but the music has more influences from the current emo-scene (Placebo uses influences from new wave bands). He does have a good voice, melancholic with a little tweak in it, like the singers of Lit, Green Lizard and Mad At Gravity also have.

So what does the music on this cd sound like? Well, it’s a slow, easy listening cd with at times some rock type outbursts. However, the guitars are mixed a little too much into the background so it never really gets in your face during the up tempo parts.

The music sometimes reminds me of the bands Shun and Mad At Gravity (Both RIP). Only a little bit faster, but it has that same dramatic desparate feeling.

It’s a perfect autumn cd. Imagine a soundtrack for falling leaves, a setting sun and the news you just lost your job/girlfriend/pet animal. Melancholic.

I mentioned the production before. The guitars are too soft in the mix, but overall, it’s prettty good: A polished production, so listening to the album is not the worst thing that can happen. It’s a pretty solid rock album from a band with potential. Normally I think these kind of cd’s are too easy and safe, but I don’t have that feeling with this cd. You can consider that as a compliment. Fans of new school emo and Placebo, give this cd a chance (also for the cool artwork).

By the way: The song Bleed Me Blue” is brilliant.
