Whoa whoa...overshadowed? Rats is as good as any other song on the album. I think we can all agree on that, regardless of our actual favorite.


"Ranaldo" is misspelled.

Ostensibly, he was trying to allude to the fact that Lee only has one song on the record. Use of the word "overshadowed" is not exactly the best way to make his point.

Lee is still present in the songs, but I do get the sense that Lee's work on the album, besides the one song he contributed, he really is rather overshadowed. I was expecting a little more out of him. On "Do You Believe in Rapture", the guitar noise that is coming from Lee's guitar is mixed a little too low. It should have been a little bit louder. The album has this toned down feeling through some of it that just doesnt seem to work all the time.

Yes Atari...that point has been brought up. I didn't write the review. Only quoting him...

It is a poor choice of words. I think I'll mail him a thesaurus.

If he doesn't want emails bashing his poor writing then he shouldn't have put his email addy on the review.

Patrick Dolan is a nerf herder
