"I have lived in Omaha for over 2 years now, and I must say the music scene is amazing here, and dwarfs that of Kansas City where I lived prior. And the Quality of the groups, many of them I have heard could easily make it big if given the chance. Grasshopper takeover, a local favorite, has been scrapping and clawing to get there. One local favorite from this album is the song "no pressure", a catchy little song. This album is also interesting in the fact it ties in news clips and things between songs, mainly the story about the bands real life fiasco of being robbed. The band had their van stolen, and for over a week, they almost threw in the towel. They had lost everything after the gig, thousands of dollars in equipment and instruments. It looked bleak. But, by some good fortune they got the van back intact after a plea, and they can still rock on today. So, for a taste of Omaha with a national sound, give this album a listen."

Best yet!

"I've been a fan for awhile and this is by far their best album. This album features the new addition of guitarist Michael Cioffero. Highly recommended."

Excellent new release!
