Release Notes:
--------
This is Leave`s third and, sadly, last album due the sudden and tragic death of
Lead Singer/Guitaritst Mike Murphy - fortunately for us, the surviving members
finished off their finest piece of work and birthed into the world, breathing
life into a project that could have been moribund and depressing: it is not.
This Chicago band plays that classic Illinois styled power pop with an earthy
Mid-Western heart. They sounds like late 80s REM, Gin Blossoms mixed with the
tasteful influences of The Beatles and ELO. "In fact, there`s nothing futuristic
about their tight harmonies, driving rhythms and thoroughly satisfying
power-pop, but as the aforementioned power-pop scene proves, catchy tunes never
go out of style."-- Jim DeRogatis Chicago Sun-Times.
