Rating: 2.75/5 Certainly Not the Greatest Pop Band of all time, but OK
Boy Crisis – Boy Crisis
I think Track names are all messed up in Spotify.
This album has been sitting in my "Unheard" folder in Spotify for quite some time, no idea how it got there, or where it come from. For this reason I looked them up on Last.Fm, and I came across this page.

The opening paragraph almost made me delete the album completely.
Anyway, to the music, if the opening statement of the link above does not give you the impression that they are utter d*cks, the first 15 seconds of the first track "The Fountain of Youth" may change your opinion.
Actually after those initial 15 seconds, "The Fountain of Youth" is a safe track, it is pretty listenable, not sure if it would get you dancing or not, but it is OK. "Dressed to Digress" is a bit of catchy track, despite it's questionable lyrics. After this point, it seems the track names are incorrect, which makes it a bit more difficult to write about. However, listening on from the last track I mentioned, the Album is OK, well last track is below the standard of the rest of the record.
I would go as far to say it would be acceptable background noise, never going to be a classic, and I doubt it is a grower. It lacks something, an edge, substance maybe, I am just not sure, difficult album to rate. Despite this, I will listen a few more times before I decide whether I will delete forever.
