The vocals are nasal and the vocalist sounds like he&#8217;s trying too hard to sing, he sounds strained, and really, he just can&#8217;t sound that great. He&#8217;s alright, but nothing too good, but nothing awful, either. The guitar is traditional rock n roll, or at least, that&#8217;s what it sounds like to me. The singer\/guitarist\/head honcho in the thanks list sounds like he thinks he&#8217;s really talented and basically thanks no one but himself, nice. Regardless, this is how I hear this: the guitarist may be talented, but the songs are not good. The lyrics and the singing sound like they don&#8217;t fit the music. He&#8217;s trying to tell a long-winded story, and it sounds like a book, not like a song. The &#8220;singing&#8221; is somewhat annoying because he&#8217;s straining. I tried to listen to this album several times, but every time I had to stop it after a few songs because it was annoying me. I almost never stop cds in the middle. Almost never.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This sounds like it was recorded at a really good basement studio, it sounds like a fancy demo or like a self-financed recording.
