I gave it a five.

Take that you "Well, they aren't as good as blah blah" music elitists!

If an album can stay in my CD player without switches for a month, it's probably a good darned 5.

what's the numeric equivalent of slightly better than "meh"?

three i guess. not saying it's bad, i just wasn't as blown away as a lot of folks were. anyone else detect a distinct 80s influence?

I picked up on the 60s girl group influence.

Who cares if it had any certain influence; the music is excellent.

<rant> HOWEVER, I must say that the end of Wake Up annoys the heck out of me. How many bands have to use that exact same rythm? That's a little TOO MUCH influence for me. </rant>

I like the instrumentals on most of the songs, but the vocals are weak.

Hm... they don't have gorgeous vocals, but they are definitely unique. I actually thought they fit well with the instrumentals. Especially on Haiti and Neighborhood #4.
