THE LIKES OF US

This is a solid four-star album with even a few five star tracks, such as Skates On, Miramare, and Bookmarks. The new vocalist Bravin fits perfectly in this band; he even has more range than his predecessor, which fans will appreciate. Bravin himself wrote the music for the ten-minute Miramare, which again, fits pefectly with the rest of the band. A few notes - the former vocalist did not do much songwriting; the genius behind the band has always been and continues to be Greg Spawton, an English genius tall-guy type. It is interesting that no mention of Longdon is made in the artwork and the jacket for the album; usually when you lose an important member something is said about them in the subsequent release.
