From the first few notesof this CD, it is evident as to why Volcano the Bear is one of StevenStapleton's favorite new groups. With a very diverse instrumentation,ranging from distorted keyboards to horns to strings to live drums,this album whirls into extremely unpredictable directions. At onemoment it's harsh and almost nerve-irking; and at another it's soothingand beautiful. Some tracks feature vocals - a unique voice with a veryeerie feeling to it. The whole album really does drip with a sinkingemotion that you can't quite grasp - full of twists and turns thatleave the listener just plain dumbfounded.
