CD Reviews

Chewy and Delicious!

(5 out of 5 stars)

"I'm a big Amon Tobin fan...Island Row is more melodic/groovy/jazzy than AmonTobin, and equal, ear-candy-wise. The songs are remarkably listen-able, but there is so much texture here, my brain and ears are still grasping it all. Not a CD you can comprehend and digest quickly. There is ALOT of content here, and its ALL very good. Usually new CDs reveal their skip-able tracks after a few listens. Not so on Island Row. Don't get me wrong, this is not some dense difficult art-rock electronic listening "experience". Its wonderful background music too. Wade in as deep as you like. Its all refreshingly cool. Its electric pop rock with glitch-pop icing."
My Favorite Album of 2002....so far

"Captiol K's 'Island Row' is in constant rotation for me right now. I can't get enough of the intense melodies, glitched out beats, and earnest lyrics. Normally I would not be into an album like this, I tend to like my IDM with out any lyrics what so ever. Honestly, this is the first time I have ever heard it pulled off right. This is what Radiohead (Kid A/Amnesiac) would sound like if they could ever enjoy themselves...they are excellent, but perpetually depressed. The album actually sort of reminds me of Jane's Addiction...although I doubt anyone will notice that. I was in line at the record store buying one of the Orb's two disc albums of remixes, when they staff was playing this. I knew this was what I needed. Hell, even the cover art is great. Buy this album, you will not be disappointed."
Breathtakingly Beautiful

"His music is so beautiful I could cry at times. Amazing melodies combined with creative sounds & beats. I normally don't like vocals but even the few songs with vocals are great. A must-buy!"
