    You can't help but be pleasantly surprised and impressed by how much this effort doesn't borrow from its predecessor.

    The swirling pallet does drone a bit, but the band has certainly carved out their own unique sound that should impress synth-heads and orchestral pop fans alike.

    As compelling as their musicianship may be conceptually, it rarely goes the distance on Remembrance of Things to Come.

    Princeton's different desires end up pushing them towards a sound characterized by lush but repetitive arrangements and a lack of spark.
