Even if Peter Hook is looking more like someone from Tangerine Dream, even if the first two songs are kinda boring...it's the third song, "Waiting for the Siren's Call," that evokes everything you loved about the band when you were in high school, and then it continues on a bright and poppy vein from there. That solo section in "Krafty"! What the heck instrument is that, a Theremin? The runaway bride story is certainly strange, but the weirdest part about it, to me, is the size of the wedding guest list: 600 people! 600 people! I don't think I even know 600 people. Do you? Could that be a typo? thoughts? (14 comments so far) previous - next blog archive contact
