  1. There's nothing inherently wrong about writing songs about enjoying booze and drugs, but this isn't something I'd put on under the influence of either. Just imagine what it sounds like sober.

I've recently seen this band in concert at a small local bar, and was definitely impressed. I feel as if this is a laid back california attempt at a concept album.
