i stumbled upon bristol songs per accident and in a kind of half sleep, long afte rmidnight listening to new cds at CD baby and there they were - bristol songs - music filling my headphones, making me sit upright, smiling like an idiot. they are smooth, they are full of poetry and the lyrics are first class. just listen to them. just listen.

This cd is an acoustic journey through a landscape of melodic tunes that spread warmth and hope. One might have to listen to the record several times before the tunes really reveal their full strengths and depths. However, this of course signifies a strong record as the record only gets better and better for each time you push the play button on your cd player. Although the production sometimes is a little bit rough in the edges, this only adds to the innocence and charm and is a great relief from the mass-produced top ten records.
The highlight of this record is without doubt "No Fix", a brilliant song with excellent harmony between the tune, vocal, and lyrics. Other highlights include "Ice Machine" (Depeche Mode cover), "Reasons", "H", "Fall Like Flies", however this list changes after each listening.
