"Boom Boom Satellites does it again with their second album "Umbra". If you liked the first album, pull some money together to import this great CD since it looks like a domestic release in the US is never going to happen. From the first track "Sloughin' Blue" BBS sets the stage for the sound of the album. The album starts to flow in a similar way as "Out Loud" with a jazzy number coming up early in the album. Perhaps the only let down on the album is "Your Reality is a Fantasy but you Fantasy is Killing Me" featuring Chuck D. If you like rap music or Chuck D than maybe the track will be your thing, just isn't mine. "Fogbound" is another great song on the album, which was also featured on the Ridge Racer V soundtrack. And Soliloquy is an amazing song, starts out slow and then picks up and gets you moving. While very short, "Panacer" is a great little closer to this amazing album. I highly recommend this audio adventure."
