1 stars Jeff goes undustrial. Jeff does a lot of computer-generated songs, similar to King Crimson's modern stuff. Only, his is much worse. It painfully repeats the same useless passages endlessly. (Mostly) simple guitar pieces are distorted and completed by dull effects, and twisted spoken phrases. The chaotic drums don't help, either. For the most part, this album is boring, uncreative, and uninspired, but from time to time, orchestra kicks in and Jeff plays his blues. However, these sections are so scarce, and so abruptly met (see Seasons) that it doesn't save this album. JB's Blues is quite soft, and has a nice touch of keyboards, along with some great guitar. Unfortunately, the rest of the album (with the exception of the last two songs, which are full of orchestra) is tedious modern electric trash. I suggest you invest your money elsewhere.
