What Were They Thinking???.......2007-04-18

Actually, I would rate this CD at about a 3.5, but didn't want to drop the rating down to a 3 in the Åmazon rating. The rating would have been a 5, IF it wasn't for the stupid way it was recorded. Some of the songs are quite lovely and atmospheric, but the songs don't break in the traditional way. The breaks often come right in the middle of a track, right in the middle of a vocal. The tune continues on the next track - very distracting.

It's much worse if you want to put the mp3's on a portable device. For some reason, even when the tracks are properly numbered in their tags, the tracks simply won't play in sequence. I've tried manually numbering the filenames to force them to play in sequence, with no success. So, you're listening to this great bit of music when, not only does the track "break" inappropriately and for seemingly no reason, but you're thrust into the midst of a totally different song.

I don't know whose idea it was to record this CD in this manner, but he/she/they should be severely throttled. If it was intended as some copy protection scheme, then it's completely lame. I wouldn't want to download a CD recorded this way for free let alone pay for it. It seems that the only way you can fully enjoy the experience of Bluffers Guide is on the actual CD. It's a pity.

Bluffer's Guid - Retardedly Good.......2006-12-23

Pretty much an awesome album. I like all the songs except, I believe its track 9, with the wierd filter on the vocals. Every other song is pretty much a classic. Lots of thick atmosphere, surreal lyrics, and basicly a really nice, lovely sound. Imagine London Suede, except not totally lame. Oh yeah, you can imagine Arcade Fire too, if you want.

boring, forgettable, and terrible!.......2006-08-26

the reviews really had me going, but it's just a good marketing campaign, if you ask me.

I had totally forgotten I got this cd, because I got RID of it just as immediately. It wasn't even worth the effort for me to resell it, I just handed it over to a coworker in case they might like it.

I know I know, I'm not really saying anything constructive, but shoot, it's not memorable enough.

FLUFF!

Best album I've bought all year.......2006-05-17

If you like Grandaddy, Radiohead, Arcade Fire, Flaming Lips or Neutral Milk Hotel you will like Flotation Toy Warning's debut album. This album is a real masterpiece of post-modern rock. Not to dis Amazon, but you can get the album straight from the label (Misra Records, do a Google search) for less money, and they have free shipping too.

Thanks, Tony Neal..........2006-05-03

Browsing Listmanias via Elf Power and came upon Tony Neal's recommendation for this cd. Gave it a shot since I agreed with a number of his other picks.

Incredible!!!! Reminds me a bit (quite a bit, actually) of Midlake (Bamnan and Silvercork, Milkmaid Grand Army). It's a keeper.

Innovative, moving, moody-broody, clean vocals, swirling instruments....

Hope there's more coming from this band.
