If_Then_Else

Yet another band difficult to describe :). Bascially it's nice melodic atmospherical music, metal based, with a very nice female vocal on top of it. What else can I say, it sounds kinda pop-ish and I'm not sure it's really metal. I like the ambience it creates but I'm really unable to tell you much more about it. Let's say it's very accessible music, perhaps even girlfriend material :). It certainly won't hurt, but don't expect bigg riffs blowing your face, cause you'll be disapointed. As for the production it's the way it should be for that kind of music I guess. I guess it's radio oriented too much for me to really enjoy it and could very much be on MTV. I'm not a huge fan of this album and I prefer ALOT their old release I also have in my collection : Nightime Birds. This one is too grungy for me musically and the voice reminds me too much of the shit we can hear on the radio. The female vocal have a nice voice, don't get me wrong, it's the way it is used here that I don't like. In the end I find this album very commercial and above all very boring. I admit it might just be me, so I'll let you make your own judgement and try it for yourself.
