Composition/Creativity: 17/25

When they do instrumentals I really like them. Lyrics are a sore spot here though, almost to the point of embarrassment (Kean On The Job). Maybe its only Fish who can really pull this off successfully.

Musicianship: 20/25

These guys aren't exactly prog virtuosos, but what they play is tasteful and suits the songs well. (cheesy 80's synths included)

Production/Sound: 21/25

Production is a bit lacking, a tad over-compressed for my taste.

Overall Effect: 18/25

This one just doesn't quite have it. The instrumental portions are quite good, but the overall effect is one of a group not yet finding the best way to proceed.

Total Score: 76

Grade: C / 3 Stars
