Rating: - my heart and I killed off my mind, and we agree
This album starts off with a confession that sums up how I now feel about the album, "Fine, I'll admit, I may have been wrong, but I never knew that we'd get along." While at first, the sound was quite different that anything I had heard and I was resistant, now I can see, that this album and I have become quite good friends indeed.
As for the lyrics, the singer certainly wouldn't get any work as a motivational speaker. The lyrics seems to be waiver between direct Morrissey gloom ... Read More
Rating: - Fantastic album!
I have to admit, this was a grower for me too, but once it sunk in I was hugely impressed. These poor guys don't seem to be making much headway with regard to commercial attention - musical proof that the world can truly be unfair at times. Yet I'm not that surprised! Their music is a truly unsettling blend of uptempo pop and deeply paranoid lyrics. Morrisey meets Radiohead would be a good description......
Rating: - "Cedars'" greatest value lies in what's under the surface
This very well may be the best album I have ever listened to. Much tighter and more musically refined, it shows a development of the talent evident in 2001's "Lido."

Rating: - Almost an Album
"Cedars" qualifies as a semi-middle of the road peice of work. At some points it sounds great, and then at others it splashes everywhere like Thanksgiving gravey. It is worth a listin if nothing else for the song "I'd Really Like to Hurt You". It's a teetering on the fence record that just can't pull itself any higher, allbeit this album does have it's high points.So i am giving it a slight recommendation, if nothing esle but for the satisfaction of the aforementioned song.
Rating: - Whining losers
Starts off great, then they have this whiny song about "What's wrong with being weak" that ruins the whole album. I am ashamed to own this album.
