Essentially an extension of the band's debut album See See the Sun, although it's not quite as murky and dark in its depths. "Alibi" boasts wailing guitars and haunting vocals on the chorus, while the survivor's tale of "Wintertime" has accordions and bright harmonies that recall the work of Supertramp. The rest of the album, though, suffers from the sophomore curse of underdeveloped material being stretched out to album length. "They Get to Know Me" sees an interplay between subtle Adagio-like organ and stinging guitar lines, but lingers too long on its closing instrumental. The end of the album sees a foray into space rock with "Trust in the Machine," though this proves to be little more than a meandering period piece. - Paul Collins, AMG
