Not as good as I hoped it would be by Elizabeth Blackwater Atlanta, GA
Reviewed on January 20th, 2005
I hesitated to buy this album, mostly because when I looked at it in the store, it looked almost "preachy" in nature, not like A Perfect Circle's other albums...I have to admit I am having a little bit of buyer's remorse now. Some of the tracks on the album are good, track ten is good (it is the reason I bought the album, track 11 is good too, but some of the other tracks (track 6...Gimmie Gimmie Gimmie...) are REALLY bad (I understand that they are making a statement, but it just doesn't work). The biggest problem I have with this album is that it sounds SO different from their other albums...a little difference is good, but this is just a little too much "preaching to the choir" for my taste. My advice...if you don't have any other Perfect Circle CDs, buy Mer de Noms, or Thirteenth Step.If you want to buy this CD, buy it used, don't pay full price for it. More "eMOTIVe" reviews:
