    A rousing, driving smack in the face of all things pop, punk, and hard rock.

    Horrorscope is just like its predecessor, only more so: Better, smarter, faster, and angstier than Eve 6, it's an utterly delightful pop-punk kerfluffle.

    Sometimes reminiscent of classic English prog-rockers the Moody Blues and the correlating Electric Light Orchestra (as in "Rescue" and "Girl Eyes"), Eve 6 mostly sounds like a safer version of their numeric brethren Third Eye Blind, Blink 182 and even matchbox twenty

    But it's not Eve 6's purely commercial aspirations that makes them so horrid...

    I used to think that Eve 6 was a good band, and still do. True, they are not earthshattering innovators but have mastered the Top 40 hook and work well within their paramenters. Horrorscope is still their best album, and Max Collins is one of the most phenomenal lyricists out there. Few can twist out a clever turn of phrase ("got screwed by the horse he rode in on; riding high on his whims had only gotten him down") like he can without it sounding forced. No on will be talking about them in 20 years, but that doesn't mean they are without their strengths.… Expand

    Okay, I'll be honest. I used to think Eve 6 was a really good band. Now that I've been exposed to *actual* good music, I realize they're untalented and are really, really bad at writing lyrics. But I've got to give them credit for enriching my naive deluded teenage ears, and having a few nice melodies and catchy songs.… Expand

    Utterly dull and predictable. Could have been churned out by any number of modern 'rock' bands (I use the word 'rock' loosely as to place Eve 6 in the same genre as a band like Led Zeppelin is a cardinal sin). Faceless, without character and lacking any real defining sound, it's so obviously and unashamedly commercially orientated, which is presumably why it's so repetitive.… Expand
