Lew, how were they?  Share a photo, dude.

Cloud Cult is the most talented and least cynical band in the last 20 years. Love all 9 of their albums, they have an unbelievable back story. Can't wait to photograph them on May 8, 2013 in San Francisco, most anticipated concert of my 53 years on this wonderful blue orb.

I really enjoy this whole album. But it appears it's not for everyone.

I dunno, this band sounds more like they are trying REALLY hard for their music to be complex, multi-layered and thoughtful, but failing big time.  Terrible song.  I love prog-rock and a lot of other music similar to this, but this is just bad.

A good song. I'm surprised by the negativity in the comments. Cloud Cult does not play straight up rock. Their music is complex, multi-layered and thoughtful. RP introduced me the CC and now I really like them a lot. To the "haters" out there, relax and let the Cloud Cult sound float over you. At worst, the song will pass in a few minutes and at best the song might take you somewhere new!

More Cloud Cult please! I love their sound! Some of his songs are certainly more suitable for radio than others, though.

I hate Cloud Cult so much. Every time Bill plays it I turn off PR. It's all I can do. Now I'm going to turn on Spotify and clear my aural palette with some Ronny James Dio. Might elphen rocker save me!

Brutally bad!

What a horrible song

My heart breaks for him...as a father I can't listen to this.  I spent some time listening to CC stuff at first, but it was just about unbearable for me to listen to.  I know it was cathartic for him, and I know he's at a much better place now, but I hear him at a place where I don't want to even think about going - not that it was his choice.  Which might explain why I mute cloud cult when ever they come on.  I'm going to go hug my kids now.

Omigod this sucks!!!

I'm with you Bill, good stuff.

Jaa,good one,have to listen to some more CC.

This song has really grown on me. Of course, if you've never had to stare down that hooded figure bearing a scythe, you won't get it.

This would be a good song, except for the voices. And the sounds. And the lyrics. And the cheap album cover artwork.

Finally picked up this album. The few that Bill has featured on Radio Paradise are probably the best tracks, but overall, it's a really interesting set of songs - each one seems to emulate a different genre, somewhat.

Agreed! dwlangham wrote: 

Was about to poop all over this (total hater), but something about the vocal style catches my ear and makes me not hate it so much. It helps when they get out of the string plucking.

Just came to say that this is one of the best albums I've bought in the past twenty years.

Was a hater. Upped my rating.

Jump off the cliff and build your wings on the way down!

Lots of haters.  Upped my rating to balance them out
