Plumb's new album has a warm and wonderful airy quality. The vocal performance is also top notch. The title song, "Candy Coated Water Drops," is a beautiful song lyrically and musically. A little girl opens the song "Here With Me," by singing "He's Got the Whole World In His Hands." The contrast of the little girl is very effective, because "Here With Me" is one of the more intense songs on the CD. "Worlds Collide" and "Point of View" are pretty upbeat, while "Solace" has kind of a quirky, garage band sound. "Drug Store Jesus" is a really cool song with a flute in the background, while "Late Great Planet" has a spacey, techno sound and talks about the end of the world. Overall, the latest CD from Plumb has a lot of variety and some really cool and interesting touches.\
