Lately, I've been wanting to write more reviews, but due to the fact that there hasn't been anything lately that I've been desperately wanting to review, I couldn't reason to myself that I should write a full out review. Also, I've been looking for ways to work more haikus into my blogging.
Then, like a bolt of lightning, Paste Magazine started running Haiku reviews of albums on their Twitter feed and I was inspired! So starting today, for the albums that I have feelings towards but I do not necessarily want to write a lengthy and mentally arduous review for, I will start a new feature called Haiku Reviews. Hope you like it.

still just noise when you face facts.

This time it's for the better.
Synth, horns, guitar, oh my!
Verdict: B+
