    When all is said and done, Everything to Everyone manages to be good for many.

    It's the earnest attempts... that linger beyond a knowing snicker. [24 Oct 2003, p.106]

    To be sure, Everything to Everyone certainly packs in the humorous moments that were largely lacking from the group's last album, 2000's Maroon. But it also shows principal songwriters Steven Page and Ed Robertson reflecting on weightier topics related to the band's double-edged popularity.

    There's good music here, sure, and it's not a boring or painful listen, but nothing really stands out.

    This may be the point at which even those well-disposed to the nice and the quirky start to note diminishing returns.

    The Ladies' inoffensive singalongs seem just plain tired.

    Their rhythms jump all over the place and their vocals are so determined to land that punchline that it all ends up sounding like one smarmy mess.

    So much to listen to here, and what really stands out are the words...so universal.

    These guys are the antidote for a music industry that takes themselves entirely too seriously.

    The more I listen to it the better it gets. War on Drugs is a classic Steve Page tune along the lines of What a Good Boy and Break Your The more I listen to it the better it gets. War on Drugs is a classic Steve Page tune along the lines of What a Good Boy and Break Your Heart. Shopping may leave you scratching your head, but it is a pretty good rip on the post September 11th state of mind - instead of buying war bonds or enlisting, we were encouraged to go out and shop to help the economy. More slickly produced than any other BNL album, E2E utilizes Kevin Hearns talents far more than Maroon, without overshadowing the guts of the band, which is the fantastic rythym combo of Tyler Stewart (drums) and Jim Creeggan (bass). Jim really gets to go to town on "Second Best". Ed's voice just keeps sounding better to me, and while Steve does not seem to push himself vocally as in previous efforts, he continues to have one of the greatest voices in pop. So forget the inane "Another Postcard" and try out E2E.… Expand
