    Some very creative artwork graces the cover of this disc, featuring several people with computer monitors for heads crowding a busy city street. The unconvincing pop vocals and simple chord structures and clean guitar tones turn my ears slightly off, though, from the very first song. There's some really cool sampling going on in other parts, and a fun instrumental called "Video Whirled," plus some really cool guitar in "Middle of the Night," but overall I'd love to hear the band turn in some better songs.
