POWER WINDOWS

I don't dislike this album at all, in fact I find it to be very pleasant listening. Gone is the biting edge of the music though and this is much more standard fare than I'm used to from this band. Nothing really stands up and grabs me however nothing makes me want to use the cd as a coffee cup rest either. The symptoms of the dreaded 80's disease were showing through here though. With music I like to be bitten by something and the dang thing don't bite. Standout tracks here to me are "The Big Money", "Mystic Rythms" and "The Manhattan Project". A peaceful album that I don't mind playing as background music around the house if I don't want my attention filled with something other than what I'm busy with. A three star rating from my side as it is a good album that neither offends or overly excites my eardrums.
