Taking many a direct queue from The Cure, Elliott's third full-length album unleashes waves of distorted guitar intermingled with delicate, yet passionate vocals care of frontman, Chris Higdon. While the connection to previous releases is possible to see, the development of the band is also quite evident. The musical aspect laid out through the ten tracks is highly sexual, not in an overt, bludgeoning manner, rather it lulls the listener into a romantic sense of relaxation and bliss. Even with two instrumentals, the album's emotional tenderness hardly ever dissipates. The use of the strings, drum machine and keyboards creates an airy, light feel to back-up the strong presence that the distorted guitar brings to each song. While many of the lyrics are obscure, the poignant, memorable lines hit at the climax in each tune. The flow on the album never varies too much, making for a complete group of songs, instead of ten unorganized numbers. While their beginning might have had many labeling Elliott as just another emo band, the growth and beauty in their albums continues to show their remarkable resiliency and evolution. ~ Kurt Morris

Song In The Air Music Review
Average Rating: (4.5 out of 5 stars)   Brilliant
I've been following this band for a couple years now, and I'd have to say that this is their best album to date. It just blows me away, more so every time I listen to it. Much different from their earlier stuff, much more of an ambient feel, but that doesn't mean they've forgotten how to rock. I can't quite describe this album...all I can say is that it is insanely good, and, if you're even considering buying it, take these words to heart: "BUY IT!" You won't be disappointed.

 lot more mellow...
This is a great CD, but it is a lot more mellow than their previous work, a lot more spacey too. Very heart-felt vocals and music. I was kind of disappointed initially because I love Elliott's previous albums and EP for their combination of soothing and aggressive vocals, but now their is no aggression. Good none the less.
