Words starts off very U2ish. Then the lead singer kicks in and it just kind of felt super meh.
They aren't bad, but they don't do anything that makes me jump up and say wow thats awesome. I did enjoy There Goes the Fear but not enough to give this more than 3. Its a band that could be on my Spotify Discover Weekly and I wouldn't fast forward but I don't think I would take the time to like them.

I have no experience with grime (hadn't heard of it before today). For me its disjointed, technoish and a little hard to really get into it. He does flow differently and i can see its a talent and a skill. I also think the mixes have a flow thats different and could be pleasant to some. So I am going wiht a 3 because I appreciate what he is doing, but its not my thing.

This was a little different and interesting. I didn't love every minute of it but I enjoyed it all and appreciated that it was something a little different in the musical world, blending together styles and sounds I hadn't heard before.

This is all about the day I listened to it. This was somber, floating on a cloud of anti-depressants, anti-anxiety, anti-physcotics where I didn't really feel anything but somber and melancholy. If it was a different day different time this likely would have hit strong but today it was just there. They were talented and trying to put together something that made me feel this way, so I want to say props for that. It didn't feel forced and yet sucked all of the feeling out of my body. But today I needed something to make me feel something more than there.

I had this album growing up and I remember loving it. I used to dance to it in my back yard with this complicated walking scene down the back side of my sheep pen. It was super ridculous looking back on it but it passed the time.
Overall still a good vibe, and I love the female strength and empowerment they brought to their music.

It had all of the notes of R&B, hip hop, funk and all of the things. Nothing was bad, but honestly it was kind of boring after a while. Also his smooth sounds didn't always line up the best with his more juvenile blunt lyrics. Some of what makes R&B so nice is you don't even realize how crude it is because they are so smooth with the sounds and the lyrics. They make you want to move with the music and your lova...but this just kind of felt like mellow missonary with your high school boyfriend who thought he was smooth but was far from it.

It was good, more than just techno house music that was repetitive and for people on molly or ecstasy to dance to.
It had some interesting lyrics that added to the songs and broke them up enough that I didn't feel bored.
It was kind of like a weird trip through space but at least things were changing.

It was good and way different then what I expected by the title alone. Using the metaphor for zombies is one that tracks really clearly and for someone outside of the situation to clearly understand the message. The fact that he was willing to write this and bring light the situation that was going on is noble. The beats and connections to traditional rhythms while adding new sounds was great.

Its okay, its punk. Punk songs overall are short and sometimes leave me wanting more.

Meh...it was fine but nothing spectacular. I didn't hate the music but i but I just have no idea what they are saying.

For me it didn't really hit. It was kind of boring

I don't hate his voice and the overall sound. But he is just too much and a just love bombing. I appreciate he says I'be be through with me but like come on man maybe don't be so over the top and maybe it wouldn't be so bad. The over-emotional nature of this album along with his lyrics just kind of put me off.

He is different and interesting. I love the song from Major League.
It is also really appropriate he is the Toy Story guy. As I listened to it there was something deep yet juvenile. It really made me think about Jack Johnson and the Curious George soundtrack. Something is so right in the difference but then at times there are moments that I am not really sure what is going on. I don't dislike it at all, I just don't think I could go to a concert for him because this was almost too much.

Getting this the day after Dolly's passing is likely not a coincidence. She was quite possibly one of the most wonderful humans this world has ever seen. Beyond her talent, she was deep down a wonderful person that truly wanted to do good not because it made her look good but because it was the right thing to do. Now onto the album...

I love this Trio. I love that they did this because they enjoyed each other so much that they wanted to collaborate and sing songs together. I also love girl power and women coming together to do something together. A lot of times they sounds amazing together. My Dear Companion gave me goosebumps.
Each voice individually was beautiful and my favorite songs were when one of them was the lead and the others were back up. For me Hobo's Meditation didn't work, because I don't know if their voices worked perfectly together.
But all in all it was a great album to experience and brought a smile to my heart.

It was WAY 80's, there was no doubt about that. My biggest complaint is half the time I can't understand him. He sings like he has marbles in his mouth and that he is five steps away from the microphone.

This is one of my favorite Aerosmith albums. It adds together some good rock and blues.

I like her lyrics but the music itself is just 90s pop electronic. Good to get a different point of view if the time expanding the genre but nothing catches me to put it higher. After about halfway it just started to mesh together.

Not bad...
Bases in the explanation I thought it would be way more intense and it wasn't, so I enjoyed it. The blues influence was definitely there and a good spin on punk.

Maybe 955 albums ago I would have thought this was unique and different but at this point it's just another acid trip album that meanders around found nowhere, but at least this time it was fast

Nobody can make you dance along to depressing topics the way the Irish can! Its something about the Irish spirit to be beat down, have everything going wrong, be tired and exhausted but still be able to smile, dance and be happy with the small joys they have.
I love traditional Irish music and I love bands that put a new or more modern spin on it. It blends together so many different instruments and creates sounds that are traditional but also new and modern. The story telling and figurative lyrics are beautiful and clearly share the story of the Irish people in a more modern time.
The negatives are he is hard to understand sometimes and his voice is that of every other Irish folk musician I have heard (I am going to have to look at this more).
But for me its honestly great, I love it.
