Straight up ...
author: tobias
I was lying on a "Bed Of Glass", staring at "The Hole In Her Chest". It was a rainy day outside apartment "23 A". But within "A Matter Of Days" CD Baby sent "Straight Up In Siam". It felt like "Halloween" all over again. A "Vacuum" filled with "Poetry", slowly becoming "Undone". "The Convergence Zone" was reached and I was _so not_ "Sorry Sorry" that you "Grind Your Teeth". This one is a keeper. What was I going to say? Ah shite, now "I Forgot My Lines"... Wait: A wonderful assemblage of catchy tunes, witty lyrics and just good melodies. No duds on this CD!

The guys are capable of successfully rendering both catchy pop and quirky experimentalism within the confines of a single tune. Great stuff!
