Album Notes

Recorded at three locations between 2002 and 2010, this compilation runs the usual gamut of Illuminati signatures. Leading off with the anthemic sarcasm of "Every Body Luvs U" the album immediately develops its own character. The post-punk stylings of "Dying Young" and a blistering rendition of "Whole Wide World" serve as standard fare for the band. Poppy numbers such as "Holiday" and "Round, Square, Blue" would make themselves at home on soft-rock airwaves while the brooding guitars and tortured vocals of like "Masters of War" and "Dark Salsa" could scare young children and the elderly. Other note-worthy tracks include the jazzy fusion of "Far Removed" and the guitar rocker, "Floozy." William LaCour's stand-in vocals on the mod rock track, "Near Babylon" capitulate the band's penchant for the timeless.
