I reviewed a Protohero demo a while back and gave them 3/5 - a view which hasn't really changed after listening to this record released on Pass To The Left. At times the band remind me of Capdown, at others they just seem weirdly misplaced and mistimed, almost as if they're just throwing random bits in to the mix just to see if they will fit. 'Monday's Agenda', for instance, is one of the better songs. But when the band go off at a tangent they sound messy and not at all cohesive. I guess that's the point, but the off-kilter drums and vocals just sound thrown together. Perhaps I'm just a verse/chorus man, but this is a little too 'out there' for my liking.
