Alternative Pop Rock. This album is all about the radio friendly guitars and vocals. Nothing too aggressive, but at the same time it won't bore you to death. As someone who is easily bored with albums - this album was a pleasant listen. The vocals are nice and poppy - with harmonies and secondary parts appearing in places. The guitars are mostly clean channel or low distortion and are usually doing something interesting that further the songs. There's nothing really bad to say about the production and mix either. I would highly recommend this to people who like traditional alternative pop rock.

Decapolis 2000Reviewed by Tom BastianTheir record label describes them as "melancholy pop" and I would have to say that's pretty accurate. It's definitely melodic, and after just a listen or two I was singing along to most of this album. The band reminded me a little bit of Buffalo Tom, yet they had more of an indie rock feel to many of their songs. Some may even compare them to the Juliana Theory minus the distorted guitars and…Decapolis 2000Reviewed by Jim ShadyIs Weezer's Rivers Cuomo venturing into emo? Quite possibly, being that I know zilch about Beezewax's past. Beezewax isn't emo's version of Weezer but it somehow reminds me of that. Possibly it is the quasi-catchy (is that a word?) melodies that only a whining, dark song can achieve. The music gets your toe tapping until the Rivers Cuomo imposture starts to sing. This is not a cut, but lets face…Similar sounding releases
