Album Notes

WE'RE DONATING ALL OUR PROFITS TO THE RED CROSS'S HURRICANE KATRINA RELIEF EFFORT. PLEASE HELP!

"2004 Artist Of The Year"
The Mic Magazine for Broadcasters and Bands

"This is really freaking cool! ... A fairly eclectic mix with a positive message is enough to prove this band has serious chops!"
Kimmie, ScoreRocks.com

"The tone throughout is hard as a callous, confident, self-possessed and unwaveringly cool....Rating: 4 out of 5 kisses" - Rachelle Nones, Betty Magazine

"Dana Victoria pulls off the vocals with attitude and power. She has a great presence on the CD, complementing the eclectic songwriting of Bill Bois."
Mark Rossmore, BandCode.net

"Bois organized punks, metalheads, rockers, chorus people, a dulcimer player and his dentist to fill in on instruments/backing sounds while space-age power-rockers Seasons of the Wolf recorded, engineered and produced the final product -- the CD 'Goddess of Cool.' Although it's been out for a year, the timeless electro-ambient prog-pop-punk disc is sufficiently spliced for modern hypnotica, too." - Dawn Scire, Sarasota Herald-Tribune

Loved every cookie decorating second, Dana's voice is superb. Bill Bois's Inspired sounds makes me want to move to Florida and drive with my windows down blatting out his pure unadulterated funky music.

Progressive Meets Punk
author: Steve Stasiukiewicz
Progressive meets Punk. Longer well crafted songs with the aggressiveness and rawness of Punk. The more you listen the more you like it. Great bass playing. Nice hooks. Good production. The vocalist is very reminiscent of The Cranberries and Garbage.

A great punk/pop/rock/alt mix. Most songs are perfect for radio.
author: Skully
Pop Rock, Street Punk, and strange semi-gothy techno edge. Sometimes quirky, but always hip. This disc should find easy airplay in the college market.
