Another sweet entry from Baby Boot Box. It only takes about ten seconds before the first track "Dead Man Down" hooks you with it's hypnotic guitar rhythms and lyrical mastery. Those lyrics tend to be a bit on the grim side though, but not grim in a negative effect sense, more like grimly honest. They're introspective and insightful, like the best poetry you never wrote in high school. Of course the whole thing is dressed up in an electronic-alt-pop-rock coating that helps the medicine go down. A great album to chill to on an otherwise gloomy day. A thoughtful and involving collection of tunes.
