"Ok, here's how I found this band... I have a band on Myspace (2nd Wind). The Never asked to be my friend. I went to their site and listened to their music. I added them to my friend's list and then went immediately to Amazon to order "Antarctica..".



While the idea of having an illustrated story accompany the CD was innovative, it was the music that drew me in. It's a concept album, which I tend to appreciate - I enjoy having a mood set and being taken for a ride - and in Antarctica there's a freshness (a wintery freshness?) to it - very uplifting. Standouts?: "Leaves Start to Fall", "Summer Girl/Old Man Winter", "Cavity"(my favorite), "The Witch". I've hit replay on these three songs before going on to the next one... more than once. But there's not a clunker in the mix.



And I love how the CD comes full circle - revisting themes - with the last song. Kind'a cinematic.



Based on my enjoyment of this CD, I'm ordering Ari Picker's (Lost in the Trees) "Time Taunts Me".



Score one for Myspace."
