Review by Gary Hill
Sometimes less is more. I think that would probably be true on this album. Had it been cut down, taking out a few of the weaker songs and focusing more on the strengths, I think this would be a better set. There is a somewhat awkward DIY quality to this that sometimes has a charm to it. Other times, I think further tweaking would have made for a stronger album. Overall, I think this is an album that lands on the good side of the spectrum, but could have been much better.
