Though I haven't heard the album, I would be suspicious of any CMJ reviews. They give great reviews for great albums, and great reviews for mediocre albums, and very positive reviews for terrible albums (you can usually spot the poor albums when they seem to work a bit too hard praising it). CMJ is at its best describing the sound of an artist, and they do a lot of good by exposing inward college-radio programmers to a lot of music they probably wouldn't hear, but they end up pushing every album that comes out... --------- John Bush.
