Comments:
On first listen the album did nothing for me. When I listened to it at 4am during a loud thunderstorm I started hearing some great songs in this album. It flows incredibly well, and is a very soothing and mystical album that will take years for me to grasp all the depth of all the songs. There's nothing incredibly striking in the album though...song wise—and I find it merely a mood piece for now (hopefully that will change soon). The melodies that the couple generate are beautiful and I definitely recommend this album for anyone wanting to kick back and relax. (RocketsTail@aol.com)
