"Dig are a funny little band in that they have great lyrics and great music - really a great sound - but no radio play. I found this cd in a catch that a friend got from a friend (sort of as a gift, there were about ten cd's), and popped it into the player. We all soon found that we liked it. Some of us went to buy this cd and many others git their hands on copies the fastest way they could. It quickly became an inside thing. The sound that they have is great, an alternative cd that is better than the average alt that is out there. This is a great cd, even if they only have a small following. They diserve better, buy this cd and judge for yourself, and spread the word!"

A wall of sound!

"This is the second offering by this band (the first being "Radioactive" from 1993) and is a solid, straightforward album of rock music. If you are tired of the poser bands with immitation licks and fake gravelly voices, this may be the band for you.Musically, there are enough little surprises to keep you interested throughout and power right from beginning to end. The music isn't that different from some bands that are getting airplay with similar styles (maybe Foo Fighters) which makes it surprising I've never heard them on the radio or in clubs (NJ/NYC area).If you like this album, you should definitely get your hands on the first. Though "Universe" has less of the flowing guitar workings of "Radioactive," it makes up for it in pure energy."
