It takes a certain kind of band in this day and age to release a single called "The Dolphin's Cry." Unsurprisingly, that band is the always earnest Live. The Distance to Here doesn't have the aura of dullness that marred 1996's Secret Samadhi, but the everybody-in-the-pool accessibility of Throwing Copper is nowhere in sight. Still walking hand in hand with producer Jerry Harrison (producer since their debut, 1991's Mental Jewelry), the Pennsylvania-based quartet go for the bombastic and naturally end up over the top. It's one thing to rhyme "shooting star" with "you'll go far," but it's another thing to think that this is a good idea. The literalness of the lyrics aside, The Distance to Here has a few moments where listeners may get caught up in a maelstrom of melody. Will they stick around for the "message?" Not likely. --Jason Josephes

Brilliant!.......2007-06-15

This album is one of their best. I have not listened to this album in a while and while driving put it back in my cd player. I am always blown away by the writing and the music these boy's make. This cd is brilliant!

ok but..........2007-05-13

..just a little too religious & preachy for me. Was looking for better compositions.

It's hard to beat "Throwing Copper", but this comes close!.......2007-04-25

I respect the fact that everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but I have a hard time figuring out how one can NOT like this album! While "Secret Samadhi" was good, it wasn't great, which in itself might help to make this album that much better. Regardless, this effort has definitely paid off for Ed and the boys of Live. CDs with every song being good are hard to come by, but this pulls it off, in my opinion! Every time I hear "The Dolphins Cry" and "Run To The Water", I think back to my senior year in college and that time in my life, in general. Full of excitement but also uncertainty. Anyways, enough of the nostalgia trip, go out and get this disc if you are a new fan of life. You won't be disappointed.

One of My Favorites.......2007-03-10

This album, LIVE fan or not, is a must buy. It's jammed packed with powerful melody that grabs you and doesn't let go. The album truly reflects the amazing talent of this group. It is one of my favorite albums. Buy it, you wont be dissapointed.

I personally love it.......2007-02-03

As a mostly Metal minded listener, i find this cd to be purely soothing and inspirational (though i am not a spiritual person). Especially the track "Walk in the Dream". i love it. its soothing. "Dolphins Cry", "Face and Ghost", "Voodoo Lady", the title track and even the very slow yet charismatic "Dance With You". Personally, there are a couple cheezy tracks like "Run to the Water" and "they stood Up..". But i just didnt RIP those tracks.
Live went a bit off the deep end for me with IV, but this cd is great. the 3 LIVE cds of Copper, Samadhi and this were really good. I may have to try the newest release. Highly recommended to people that can appreciate a soothing release like this on a nice summer day.
