With all due respect...no one lightened up anything or even thought about it. What we DID do was try to frame the song content the way we thought it sounded best.

Part of the process of putting out CDs is that you have to deal with that unfortunate creature called "The Music Critic". Everyone has an opinion....but some people put their\'s in print.

If you disagree with the review...write a letter to the editor....not an ugly nasty one....but state your points intelligently and clearly. In other words....do what this guy apparently didn\'t do. I plan to do that myself, if it is what it seems to be. But true fan letters carry more weight and often get printed.

I was with tim the other day and one thing we agreed on was that whatever this guy was going to say....we stood by the record as a work to be proud of.

By the way...there is a 1/4 page ad for the record in the magazine.

the problem is most "music critics" throw a cd in,give it a quick spin,probably fast forward past tracks that arent initially appealing then wrote a bogus review without really having a clue about the album.
if i was a music critic,id listen to the cd 2 or 3 times straight through,then make my judgement/decesion of the album.
this review isnt half as bad as that other clowns review.at least he had some good things to say.
vic,dont get discouraged.i know you dont anyway,but just knwow that the 5 of you guys put out an excellent album.

Fred..

I\'m pretty thick skinned when it comes to reviewers.....and I see we sold a few copies on Amazon in the last few days. I just want to see thse guys make some money doing what they love to do.

Press is still press...and hopefully this will bring more people to check out the band and make their own decision.

I own the new Relix and have read the review over a few times and I still don\'t understand what the guy feels or is trying to convey. Poor writing on his part and poor representation of the writers ability. I think I am going to take you up on the offer and write a letter to Relix stating my opinion of what I have read from Relix over the last year or so.

Wah, Agree totally with 10k and moe.down being the most important festivals of the summer. If they go out to 10k and seriousily "live with no regret" they will come back a different band. By the time moe.down comes around they should be a fine tuned machine.
Does the band have any summer tourdates outside of the festivals? or are they just going to practice and take a "creative" break?
