5.0 classic
A Bunny's Caravan Draining Puddles, Retrieving Treasures
After having listened to this countless times I can still put this on any time and enjoy it
just as much.
Carissa's Wierd Ugly But Honest: 1996-1999
Carissa's Wierd They'll Only Miss You When...: Songs 1996-2003
Well, I gave a compilation album a 5-star rating. Normally this wouldn't be justified
because well this compilation album just takes the best songs from several other albums and
puts it all together. The members of Carissa's Wierd were faultless, selecting all the fans'
favourites and adding up to 16 songs. rThough I haven't got this album in my library, I have
all the other records which the songs are taken from.rFor people who want to explore the
beauty that is CW but need to be eased into the quite lengthy tracks this is a perfect place
to start.

Elliott Song in the Air
'Beijing (too many people)' and 'Song in the air' are some of the best songs ever brought out by Elliott. Too bad the rest of this album isn't quite on par, not even close actually.

Raw production makes for passionate sound. Shame these guys sort of vanished. This would've been a 4,5 if not for the superfluous U2 cover and the track 'as soon as beauty dies' which is just an alternative version of 'one life to live'.
Escape the Day Ghostless
Evans Blue The Pursuit...
Far Apart Hazel
Fear Before The Always Open Mouth
Flashpapr Do What You Must Do
White Flowers is one of the best romantic songs I've ever heard.

Why only 3,5? Because there are too much interludes.I expect my screamo to maintain a high tempo, that's not the case.

So 'Sleep Patterns' is an amazing track. The sort of track that makes you think you've possibly found your next 5-star rating. Unfortunately the rest of this EP is average, like so many emo bands these days are.
Mimas The Worries

Doesn't quite click for me, maybe it'll grow. Sorry Trebor.

Got tired of it real quick. The songs aren't very distinctive of one another, disappointed.
Fight Like Apes ...And The Mystery Of The Golden Medallion
They really sound like they fight with apes lol.rA little too chaotic for my like.
life without buildings Any Other City
Crazy indie rock tunes, guitar driven and with a female vocalist who seems to sing about everything in life in a lighthearted way. Sometimes she should do away the playfulness and use her voice in a more heartfelt way. That's the only thing that's keeping me from rating this 4 or higher.r
On The Might of Princes Sirens
'Where you are and where you want to be' was superb. It was soothing yet agressive. Emo at its best. This one however is a post-hardcore album that would be very good if I only had not experienced the first album.
Placebo Battle For The Sun
Polyenso One Big Particular Loop
Sleeping at Last Ghosts
The Books Lost And Safe
There Will Be Fireworks There Will Be Fireworks
This Day Forward The Transient Effects of Light on Water
Needed to force myself to keep listening until the album was finished.

I hate this now. Don't know why I liked it in the first place. Vocals are forced and very very whiney.
