The problem with the CD (I think someone mentioned this too) is the energy
drops off quickly midway through the CD. The CD could have used better
sequencing (it sounds like they crammed all the fast songs up front to get
radio attention) and a few more upbeat songs.

It's a grower and hopefully a few more listens (when im not paying
attention) will reval more gems. Right only a few first listen
Knockout-punches. The only goosebump inducer for me so far is "Mexican
Wine". I love the conterpart background vocals on the last verse.
