When I heard this was a covers album by smaller bands I'd not heard of, I thought I was going to be disappointed. But this album is great. I assume (from a brief read of the linear notes) that these songs represent some of the better tracks by the other bands showcased, and they are all good.
TBR clearly add their own spin to these tracks (or everyone of the bands sounds exactly like TBR), so they do sort of sit with their other releases. This leads me to my only criticism; in doing this album TBR have definitely not strayed out of their comfort zone in terms of sound. But they are very good at making the sound they make, so I can't complain.
