I don't understand the sudden popularity of this horrible band. I'm sure the people of Seattle are just plain sick of the nameless faceless songless grunge acts that are still hanging around, but PLEASE! There are still better local acts in Seattle than this white-washed soul-less soul act. It's almost offensive to call this soul. Make up a new genre and stick this band in it. Give them their own genre. How about "unimpressive music?" Or better yet, I'd like to see this CD in the "Say what?" section at Tower Records. Another Dave Mathews Band has reared it's ugly head, stealing a label from geniuses and making it okay for tasteless people to say they listen to "soul music." Otis must be rolling in his grave.
