Better than ever

 Album Rating: (5 of 5 stars)

Review Comments: I've been a fan of the Horse Flies for years but never really enjoyed listening to their albums from beginning to end in one sitting. I usually pulled out one or two songs from each and left the others behind. Gravity Dance has some great numbers but the full drum kit takes away from the overall horse flies sound. Then I found out they were releasing a new album. On their website I found about 5 sample tracks and I was hooked enough to buy the download as soon as it appeared on Amazon.
Until The Ocean is really, really good. Classic sound and some nice percussion mixed in. There are certainly tracks that are my favorites (Veins of Coal, Build a House and Burn It Down, Drunkard's Child) but I can truly enjoy the entire album. The Horse Flies are unlike any band out there today and if you can ever catch them live you will be in for a treat.
You can do a lot worse for the $8.99 download. If you've never heard the Horse Flies then plunk down the bucks and give it a listen.

Wowowow!!

Review Comments: This is the abum of 2008 for me. I can't believe that this band hasnt gotten the recognition that they should be. The music industry isn't what it used to be, with terrible bands and singers becoming millionaires with songs written by ghost-writers and all of the best music forced into the underground. Actually... i think the music industry has always been like that.
Anyways, anyone with a respect for amazing music should buy this album... there are so many different styles of music from all over the world being blended together so perfectly on this one disc that I think my head will explode everytime I listen to it (thats a good thing.)

Until the Ocean

Review Comments: Stunning new album. Boy am I a happy man. If you know the music of the Horse Flies, you'll know what you're in for. Wowdom. Unique and groovy.
