Lead singer and guitarist Thomas Fisher has a great voice, and also knows how to write songs that deliver. The whole band is really tight, and the production/engineering is top-notch, so you can clearly hear each musician's part. "Autumn's Calling" starts thing off with a ka-pow!

The fun continues with "Loser Juice" and the standout track "I'd Rather Look at You," with its loose, poppy feel and catchy guitar leads. "Do As I Say" reminded me a bit of Journey's best work, and "For Your Sake" is another winner, which evokes Alice in Chains and Metallica, while still managing to carve out its own unique and distinctive sound. From start to finish, it's a collection of songs that gets better each time you listen.
