This album has been criticized for the weird, irregular vocals, but I believe that is what sets it apart. It would be like saying "boy, Bob Dylan would be great if he weren't so folksy." Caterwaul delivers a searing 14 tracks on this effort. From the dark "Innerlooped","Stumped" and "Fissure" to the uplifting, breezy and somewhat danceable "Maybe in a Million Years", "Manna and Quail," and "Big Ox Laughing". My favorite is "This Regret" because it is contemplative and shows the lead singer's range. I am "Stumped" at how this band could produce this kind of music without the reward of fame. Oh well.
