Kind of like depressing

"I'm not going to lie, this is one good album. In fact, I would wager that this is Kind of Like Spitting's best, it's a good medium between the overly busy "Bridges Worth Burning" and the sparsely populated "You Secretly Want Me Dead." Again, the lyrical content of this CD is quite similiar to the rest of Kind of Like Spitting's body of work: brooding, cynical, depressed, and whiny. Altogether it's music to bum you out (If thats what you're into, you are in luck). I must give their leading man (Ben Barnett) some credit though, he is quite apt at spanning the entire spectrum of sadness, from playfully jaded in "1330 Oak 1995" to painfully on the brink of tears in "Blue Period". With clever lyrics such as "so cute you give me a headache" and wonderful violin accompaniment as in "Birds of a Feather" this CD is not to be missed, its melancholy is addictive."

Good tunes

"i'm not usually a person that can listen to mellow music for more than a few minutes at a time, but this cd has me captured through the entire thing. it's addictive for me, and it has it's own ambiance to it. give it a try, you won't be able to stop listening to it."
