2 stars It is obvious that this album sounds as ''déjà vu'' but it is globally not a bad record. If you have ever been delighted with ''Radiohead''', there are some chances that you would appreciate ''137''.

Now, if you're looking for originality and fantasy, you should pass your way, because you won't find so many of these here. Straight-forward pop-rock music: melancholic, sad and maybe somewhat uniform (''Perpetual Night Shift''). These are the ingredients and after some seventy minutes, I have to say that some dull feeling can take place. A long EP would have done the job quite frankly.

Most of the songs have the same look and feel and after such a long treat, I can't say that my first action would be to spin this album again after having listened to it once. Real highlights? Can't find honestly. Just an acceptable rock album.

Two stars.
