| Start with the other three albums |
| What happened here? The music lacks the psychedelia and quirkiness of the first three albums. This album is far less catchy then previous releases. |

| Excellent Cd |
| Having all the Wellwater cd`s released and being very fortunate to see them live once, surprisingly, this is the least assesible cd, it took a few times to really get into it and fully understand what all is going on. In a review I read Matt Cameron as saying this is what Wellwater sounds like without being influenced too much of what we like. If this is what is going to continue, bring it on.. |

| What is up with the recording quality? |
I downloaded the songs and really liked them, but I was getting really crummy audio on my computer so I assumed that I had gotten a hold of some bad files. I went ahead and bought it anticipating a much fuller sound on my home stereo. Wrong. And I have some nice Paradigm speakers, a quality Amp, and a pretty nice Rotel CD player. There simply is no excuse for a recording this bad. If they are going for lo-fi, they ended up with much worse, and unprofessional - something that sounds as muffled as the recordings I made on the radio using my boom box when I was a kid. The Strokes managed to score a "lo-fi" sounding album with their first, so it isn`t too hard.
What a shame. These songs could really reveal some sonic detail with the right recording. I`m in a strange position here. I REALLY can`t recommend buying this disc if you expect any semblance of modern recording quality standards. If you ONLY care about the music, go for it. Wow, I`m not sure what to think. |
