blue planet sounds like a super-rocked up version of the waterboys, i like it a lot. love the vocals on it, the singing on the verse is great especially.

me vs. you is quite interesting, feel like sometimes the vocals get lost in it a bit especially when the guitars are cranked up, which is a shame, cos they sound nice. could just be myspace though.

on the slow tear, i think the vocal comes across a lot more strongly. lots of interesting sounds in there, for example i like the contrast between the slow melancholy vocal with the subtle synth sound, against the plain (almost straight DI'd sounding) bass sound with the clean guitar strikes. song builds up to a great climax.

i like the variation in songs, some really quite different ideas in here, not your average song structures either. who are the vocalists? the woman has a great voice, sounds almost kirsty maccoll like in her lower ranges.

cheers for the comments guys
the vocalists are as follows:
blue planet-kenny from the 44s...www.myspace.com/the44s
me vs you - claire wood...she should have a site up really soon...i play guitar with her all the time.
the slow tear - suzie is in a band from glasgow called bad dancer...www.baddancer.co.uk they are rather good indeed.

ah yeah, i saw bad dancer supporting rico last year at king tut's. they were a lot better than the other support band, that's for sure.

Fantastic songs though, all of them, I would love to hear the whole cd.
