Different . . . So different . . .

Review Score: (2/10)
Look, as a CD it's fine . . . but as Indigo Girls? The lyrics are practically remixes of their old songs, and did you notice how they go with melodies contrary to what the words say? And that they don't fit very well? And that my beloved Indigo Girls have abandoned that beautiful acoustic style they once had (like in "Love's Recovery" and "Ghost"), not to speak of the bitter, angry, but still lovely sound of "Caramia" or "Kid Fears?" It's quite distressing. In their desire to expand into new instruments and sounds, they have become depressingly mainstream and not real any more.
