I've been at this for exactly a week now and this is already the THIRD boring Euro-pop band that's come up! Enough with this late 90's crap, too! I hope I'm getting front loaded with all this garbage and the good stuff is coming later. Also, I assume the douchey, pretentious cover is supposed to be an homage to Blue Note Records. Is it an homage, though, if it's a blatant rip-off? Lyrically, this album is some of the most vapid songwriting I've ever heard: "If you were a dog, I'd feed you scraps from off the table though my wife complains." Musically, it sounds like a cheap, off-off-Broadway theatrical production, and the lead vocalist wishes he were David Bowie so hard but falls well short of getting the imitation quite right. If it were possible to give 0 stars, this album would deserve it (or worse). As it is, however, they should find themselves fortunate that I begrudgingly award them 1 star.
