Too noisy for my liking. Felt like they were drowning their talent in cacaphony. Such a shame to hear velvel turned into sandpaper.

As You Were Then is a beautiful song. EVOC’s touch is wonderful…I can’t stop listening to it. I wish she would sing it to me.

You don’t hear much that is really different and good in this world, but this album is a major exception. I particularly like the fifth track, but you may have a different favorite.

This is a great CD and it gets even better if you have seen the East Village Opera Comany’s new show which showcases the music in this new CD. The group has outstanding instrumentalists and the two vocalists (Tyley Ross and AnnMarie Milazzo) are supurb. In fact, the entire band is outstanding. Great work by the whole group
This CD is far more meaningful if you have seen the band in person. They are very impressive. The sound at a live performance is hard to duplicate on a CD. I will be looking forward to the next CD done by this group.
