2 Reviews For The Good Days

The Papercuts - You Can Have What You Want
7.0/10.0
A band held tightly captive by their own work. Delicate, disaffected, and monotonous dirge-y dreampop. The first 4 songs are unintentional rehashed versions of older material, though a dim light shines on the short and sweet title track and on 5th track "Jet Plane." Better off buying their SUHWEET 2007 album "Can't Go Back" album here.

Benjy Ferree - Come Back to the Five and Dime Bobby Dee
8.5/10.0
Custom designed and purposefully deconstructed rockabilly for Generation "P" (as in Paranoia). Where other songwriters attempt to fashion music for the masses, Mr. Ferree is an artist forcing you down a path of his own whim, the whole while proclaiming his word "the gospel truth." You want to believe and more importantly, you're apt to follow. Highlights are "Fear" and "Iris Flowers." Purchase at insound.
