      There is not much I have to say about this CD. I kept putting off reviewing it and now I know why. This CD was utter crap and it has made me so damn depressed that I am near ready to put a bullet through my head.

      I just can't believe that music like this exists? Right from the beginning, in the song entitled, Opium and Speed, was a slow, dark ode to the drugs that can't be good mixed together, let alone by themselves. Next, I was treated to a song called Fireworks that just made no sense, and while the woman singing had a nice g voice, the song left me strangely sad without knowing why.

      There are several upbeat tracks on this CD, but once again, they sounded drug induced, helping me to understand the little message on the CD calling for "Bipolars of the World to Unite". About the only line that really stuck me was the line that states that "There ain't no other god but MTV". People have been saying that for years, but in this case, I am happy that MTV has not played a band like this. No one needs to go through a day thinking about drugs, depression and suicide. I am sorry to say this, but that is the only feeling I got from this CD, even when it did come to the upbeat songs.

      Other tracks on the CD include Kill Someone, Valium for Breakfast and Murder and Create. I do not recommend the CD for anyone who wants to listen to really cool lyrics. I do like the music though, the band plays well together and if you like listening to great guitars, and more, maybe you should just give this band a listen, especially if you just got dumped, lost your job and have a serious addiction to drugs. Someone get these guys a therapist.
