    It's a clean, commercial take on the NYC style modern rock of the day. The best songs compare well to contemporaries like Interpol, The Strokes, The Walkmen, etc. The rest are somewhat nondescript and uninvolving.

Just don't expect to be blown away by the whole album.… Expand

    Where the big boys tick and twitch, Longwave merely plod. [Mar 2003, p.111]

    Even in spite of their obvious knack for a beast of a tune that knows no indie fear, they do a cracking job of getting peculiar on us as well.
