Life In Dreaming

Debut album from this popular New Jersey 5-piece blends a hard-edged guitar attack and muscular rhythm section with impressive harmonies. Green Day are the nearest comparison but in truth they are a fairly generic outfit. There are riffs and hooks aplenty and they move from the aggressive 'Minor Detail' to the lightweight guitar-pop of 'The Point' with impressive dexterity. However, the band suffer from a fatal lack of originality.
