Entertainment WeeklyRecommended listening strategy: Put Time Out of Mind out of your mind, kick back, and enjoy. [8 Nov 2002, p.106]
-
The sturdy jams--decorated with Moog, powerful guitars and frontman Jakob Dylan's sexy purr--pour out of the stereo and stick in your head.
-
It's a strong effort, probably the kid's best thus far, and Dad should be proud.
-
It's hard not to wish that the album had a bit more of the quirks and muscle that gave Breach its backbone. Without it, Red Letter Days isn't quite as forceful, but it is accomplished, melodic, and attractive.
-
They strive to be a classic band, crafting timeless songs that will still be fresh and relevant long after the competition sounds dated and quaint.
-
It's the strength of the lyrics that brings each song to a place the group hasn't truly been before on a consistent basis.
