The first couple of songs kicked out some dancing grooves with catchy guitar and bouncy bass lines, but by the end of the CD, I grew bored and didn't even feel the urge to tap my foot. Kind of like watching a band you dig at first, but play too long and you are just waiting for the set to be over. Variety is essential if you're making music that's in an all too familiar vein. North Sea Story seems to be a solid band that needs to erase the rerun episodes of Emo playing in their heads and journey off into a land of their own personal expression. How much longer can all this go on? This rerun, recycled, reused Emo business needs a good checking. Something new has got to come. It's got to at least evolve. Ok, i'll stop preaching. It just hurts to see so many bands with helluv musical potential waste their time with the same old shit. Please fix it for me.
