I listened to this today again (after reading your review, ACR), and I actually skipped "Falling Man".  I liked the song when I heard it, but I just wasn't in the mood for remembering 9/11 at the time!  I don't find it disrespectful or anything, however.

Review posted:

I loved it really esp the instrumental and Falling Man track.

I was a bit shocked at some of the fellow reviewers thoughts as I did not think it was disrespectful to the victims of 9/11 or that it was pretentious. In fact the music breathes life into the 9/11 events. Perhaps the cover may be a bit over the top but I dont think it does the victim a disservice. That image is part of the documentary "Falling Man" anyway so nothing new in that regard, and of course it is controversial if that was your intention. I wish I had the actual CD booklet rather than a promo copy but still its great music and thanks for sending this along to Australia!

I was just watching his recent `Get All You Deserve' live DVD last night, and this pic reminds me of a lot of the close-up's on Wilson in that concert!

i get the feeling, based on the text-speak they used in their response to me, that it was a young person just trying to boost the rating of their friends' band. kids. Confused

anyhoo, a few random drive-by ratings aren't exactly making me any less money from this music. can't make less than nothing!  Smile


Drummers are rightfully underpaid for their efforts!

I hear you. And we are aware of exactly what is happening in that regard. Unfair and misuse of the site is unwarranted by deliberate manipulation of ratings.

thank you, sir. we look forward to your thoughts.

could you also direct me to the admin who could remove the ratings of and ban the four separate users that were just created yesterday to give almost every album one star with the exception of the one that he/she is either in or is friends with (hint: look at the last four ratings our album received)? i have absolutely no problem if folks truly don't enjoy our music, but this is a blatant misuse of the ratings system in place here.

thanks again, and sorry for the rant!

If you are a PA member and been sent a CD for reviewing purposes, then review. To not do so is extremely discourteousAngry

Although we've already begun work on our next record, we are still looking to get our latest album into people's ears.  Somehow I lost my private messages, so to anyone who requested a CD recently please let me know.

Also there are several PA members who were sent copies of the new CD a few months ago....would love to see some reviews/ratings from you.  Thanks!

I know there are a couple PA members who have requested CDs in the past few weeks, sorry for the delay.  Just got back into town from being on the road for the better part of a month.  Will get them out to you as soon as I can.

In the meantime....those of you who've had copies in hand for a while and haven't posted a review....we anxiously await your feedback.   Wink
