My ears are bleeding. NURSE?! This is 50 minutes of overblown tosh that goes on forever and ever and never actually makes a point. The vocals warble and waver yet sound like they’ve gone through a cheese grater, while the guitar tone is the same throughout. The band attempt to compare themselves to the likes of Jimmy Eat World – but the only comparable parts are that both bands have pulses. The press release that accompanies this disc suggests 3 Ring Circus are “genuine, heartfelt, emotional rock”.
I’d suggest they amend that to ‘fucking whiney crap’. It’d be more accurate.
