1. What were your VERY FIRST impressions on listening to the album, say from the first five minutes in?
Pretty good stuff. I like this style of music quite a bit and it comes across as quite modern.
2. What did you think of the opening track?
See above answer.

3. What did you think of the next track?
Felt a little more psychedelic because of the vocal. I liked.

4. Did you like the vocalist? Hate him/her? Any impressions?
He was fine. Would have worked better with a female vocalist IMO. Then again I would say that about most music.

5. Did the music (only) generally appeal to you, or not?
Yeah it was fine. It did it's job well.

6. Did the album get better or worse as you listened to it?
Rather consistent.

7. What did you think of the lyrical content?
Disn't take any notice.

8. Did you like the instrumental parts?
Was good, nothing amazing.

9. What did you think of the production?
Seemed okay to me.

10. Did you know of this artiste prior to listening to the album, and if so, did that foreknowledge colour your perception of this album?
I do not remember hearing much about them.

11. Is this, generally, the kind of music you listen to or not?
Not generally, but I have never strayed away from it intentionally.

12. Assuming you listened to the album more than once, on repeated listens, did you find you liked the album more, or less?
Liked it about the same both times.

13. What would you class as your favourite track, if you have one?
'The Fight' and 'Black and White'.

14. And the one you liked least?
'I'm in Love' was a bit sap.

15. If the album in question is a debut, did that fact allow it, in your mind, any leeway, and if so, was that decision justified or vindicated?
Nope.

16. Are you now looking forward to hearing more from this artiste, if you have not heard any of their other material?
Probably won't to be honest.

17. Were you surprised by your reaction - positive or negative - to the album?
Nope.

18. Did the album end well?
It was fine.

19. Do you see any way the album could have been improved?
Female vocalist, a bit more raw.

20. Do you think the album hung together well, ie was a fully cohesive unit, or was it a bit hit-and-miss?
It was cohesive.



6.5/10
