SpinRepresents a major upgrade in Dashboard's sound. [Jul 2006, p.83]
-
The album is gentler and falls much closer to the feeling of The Places You Have Come to Fear the Most.
-
They've never sounded so unoriginal. Or, frankly, better.
-
The overall lack of any real risk results in standard guitar anthem boilerplate.
-
Only the title track bears any resemblance to what Dashboard once were.
-
Q MagazineIt's difficult to imagine Carraba's earnest tenor appealing to anyone over the age of 20. [Sep 2006, p.107]
-
The songs are pretty much middle-of-the-road, generic radio alt-rock devoid of any real personality.

BGillJun 27, 2006A bit blah. I always enjoyed the MTV Unplugged stuff and the Vindicated EP, but this is not growing on me like his previous work.
