3 stars This record got off to a bad start for me, the vocals really stood out in a bad way on the first two songs. It seems that when he really tries to sing with some emphasis, the accent and the bad tone really stick out. On the other hand when he sings in a reserved way he actually sounds a lot like Andy Latimer, who's vocals I love.

"Judgement Day" is a great song, nice extended guitar solo with drums, it really shines. "Dreams" is introduced with spacey synths for about 2 minutes. Then guitar, drums and keyboards create a nice groove. Good song.The vocals on "Dreams" and "Starry Night " especially sound like Latimer. "Urban Flight Delight" has more great guitar.

Good record, just not a great one.
