Query: Irritating

This is an irritating CD for a couple of reasons. Many of the songs have what sounds like a pretty cool guitar riff, but it gets buried in all the muddy lo-fi noise. The songs are sung in an emotionless monotone with some effect that makes them sound disembodied. If one song were done this way, it might be effective, but the entire CD drones on, each song sounding pretty much like the previous one. I think there are some decent songs here that would be entertaining done by another band.
