Valley of Fools was KARMMA's second studio production. The album is a mixture of songs written before Eclipse. The album was originally released in December 2004, but the version here was re-mastered in 2012.
It is a warm album with an edge, rooted in traditional blues/rock progressions with a well-balanced splash of female vocals. The album goes bright and upbeat with songs like Getting By or 405, only to swing to the darker side with Tell Me I'm Wrong and The Horsemen. 21st Century sounds like a trippy 'Smashing Pumpkins meets post-2000 U2' sound. The slow jam Easy Street should be accompanied by your favorite brand of whiskey.
