    There's still dead air begging for Wedren to fill it--preferably with stronger melodies and more lingering turns of phrase--but until his old band reform and make a comeback album, Wand is well worth waving.

    At times, Wand does become something of a scavenger hunt for dedicated fans.

    Throughout the album, Wedren knows when to go from maximalist to minimalist. And his multi-octave vocal range still delivers accessible melodies. [No. 81, p. 59]

    Taking the long view, the fact that WAND feels a bit overstuffed is more exciting than it is disappointing.
