Format:Audio CD
I bought this album on the strength of an article I read about Lungfish that made them sound interesting (a Dischord band feted by Joan Jett) if not great. I'm the opposite of disappointed. Nearly every review of each of the ten or so albums they've released advises newcomers, "This is as good a place to start as any," and the same applies here. Apparently everything they've done is as fantastically repetitive as these songs. There are variations from one song to another - from crushing early-Nirvana-esque riffs and death metal screaming to impossibly delicate melancholy psychedelic instrumentals - but usually the first bar or two of each track is pretty much the straight-line trajectory through to the end of the track, musically speaking. Solos are virtually unheard of (a lilting bass in the background wanders a little on the last track, but that's it). Play riff, repeat to end. Such a firm discipline mostly leaves the space for tension and variation to small twists on phrasing, exquisitely subtle yet earth-shaking testaments to the human body interacting with instruments. This music lays the hypnotic foundation for Daniel Higgs' entrancing lyrics, a guttural idiosyncratic mysticism belted out with respectful nods to Ozzy Osbourne and Robert Plant. Next pay cheque, I'll be getting the rest of their albums.

awesome 26 Sep 2005
By M. Beebe - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD
This band just cranks out wonderful riffs and melodies, one after another with no sign of abatement. Very consistent. Lungfish is a strange phenomenon in this way- take their song format: the simple riff with sometimes equally symple lyrics, then apply that model across 17 years, and somehow you get the amazingly complex band Lungfish. It's so pleasing to hear rock this primal and evocative from a band that's been around for a while. These guys have never faltered in my opinion.

11th album and still grounbreaking. 10 July 2005
By Joseph Mcconnell - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD
wow what can you say what a mindblowing album.Each lungfish album does follow a very similar pattern but each release sounds as groundbreaking as the last,with this there 11th album the band sound as fresh and fierce than i,ve ever heard them,daniel higgs gruff but passionate vocals go from mellow to outright anger and his lyrics are as complex and mindblowing as you would expect.If your a lungfish fan you will love this album and if you,ve never experienced lungfish before and are looking for something a bit different from all the mainstream crap you cant go wrong by buying this album you,ll be pleasntly suprised.Also check out the pupils a side project by danni higgs and asa osborne whick follows on the lungfish stlye but with a bit of a folk influence.cant wait to see these guys on tour.
