I agree with you and Dinizio.
I like the sound of this.One of my favorite types to listen to. Yes, you got a strong hint of the Smithereens here. Good vocal!
DC, eh. I'm over near Winchester and work in Ashburn. (I don't know if I mentioned that before.)
Ezekial, thanks for the listen! Glad you liked it. Only in hindsight did I appreciate Pat's apparent influence on my choices. If you're going to borrow, borrow the best I guess. And if there's a better album than Especially for You, I've never heard it. Behind the Wall of Sleep is RIDICULOUS.
Didn't recall that you're from around here--misery LOVES company. Winchester is lovely. Lots of folks in the DMV absorb the long commutes so they can live somewhere sane. It's just normal for most. We took the opposite approach and live in the middle of the chaos. It's a little insane but we save a lot in gas. Ha!
