Well, I gave it another listen....and my opinion hasn't changed much,
although I'd have to say that it is the vocals that bug me on most of the
tracks. The production is ok, nothing special though. I'll have to play it
out and see what happens...perhaps I just need to hear it blasting through a
nice system, as opposed to my headphones.
Or perhaps I'm too damn picky.
