Advantages: nice pretty songs

Disadvantages: lack of production on the finished songs

This is just a very short review as I haven't the album at hand and I see that noone has reviewed this album yet. This is Graham's first solo album and I believe was meant to be just a collection of songs he had written and wanted to get them out as a album as a sort of therapy.

This album is in itself very simple. Graham plays all the instruments and even painted the cover of the album, so it is entirely his own work. This makes this record unique and special. This album isn't the grungey loud guitar album that people excepted and has been seen on future songs by him, it is very mellow with simple melodies and lyrics, with little heavy guitar thrown in occassionally.

This album isn't a must have but it is worth buying. I don't regret buying it. It's different, so don't hold your expectations too high. There are no singles on the album in the quality of "Freakin Out", but there are some good songs on here.
