CD Reviews

Heaping Praise

(5 out of 5 stars)

"This is an amazing band and an amazing CD. All of the songs are unique and catchy in their own ways. Their songs are themed with the West Coast, nature, serenity, beauty, and relaxation. A southern california native, I have been to several of the places they reference (santa cruz, san diego) and find this adds even more satisfaction to the whole album. Great replay value because I don't know if I can tire of these guys; their stuff is so different yet so good. I cannot believe I bought this CD for less than $3.00 used, including shipping. It is the best music purchase I've ever made! I would pay full price for it, knowing what I know now, but see if you can get a get used copy for cheap- mine was in impeccable condition!



Powerlines, The New E Blues, The Restless Sea, Row of Homes are the standouts, IMHO. That being again, this is an album that is best listened to all the way through, and it can be easily and enjoyably done. You probably will wonder where your time has gone like me. I would recommend listening to them on [...] first (don't think you can on Amazon?), if you have the patience. I found them in my Sea Wolf Radio on Pandora. If you like any of the stuff from Sea Wolf, you will most likely like this album. I could go on, but please take this as all-conclusive and heaping praise and pull up a chair and listen to these guys now."
