Editorial Review:
If you wonder too long about where to place a band like Dredg, you'll miss where they're going. The band slips between the cracks of whatever rock classifications you try to stuff them into. Likewise, the Bay Area is just a mailing address; Dredg isn't evocative of any particular place or scene. So what do we make of a band that makes music that's heavy, pretty, experimental and tuneful - sometimes all in the same song? You can be frustrated that Dredg rejects the idea that the goal of music is to be easily described a couple of buzz words. Or with attentive ears and an open mind, you can enjoy the hell out of `Catch Without Arms.'

Rating:  - "Scrumtrelescent"-James Lipton
Amazing, simply. Ode to the Sun, Bug Eyes, etc, every song makes ya feel like a million bucks. My favorite band has produced an amazing album here.
Rating:  - Gets under your skin and stays there...
I first discovered dredg while sampling music at Barnes & Noble in the late summer of 2005. After listening to samples of Incubus, Linkin Park, and Muse, I clicked "similiar artists" and dredg came up. I liked their sort've alt-prog sound and tagged them as a band to watch for. A couple weeks later, I came across a used (still sealed) copy of Catch Without Arms at an L.A. record store for only $3.99 and snatched it up.
For whatever reason, the CD sat on my desk, unopened for nearly ... Read More
Rating: - A step up and to the right
This is a great album but it's not quite the Dredg I've grown to love. There isn't a single jam on this album, which is unfortunate. Every track is just a straight forward song like every other radio band. Yes, they've also seemed to head more the the lime light with a more radio friendly format. If you listen to this album in it's entirety though, you will hear Gavin singing about why this is so. That all aside...this is a great album. My only let down was the complete lack of musical jams. Every song ... Read More
Rating: - WHAT is this?
This is definitely the most enigmatic album I've heard in a very long time, and after giving it to a friend with similar tastes, I'm blessed in knowing that I'm not alone in the opinion. What do I mean when I apply such a vague and not often used description such as enigmatic? This is what I mean: I don't understand why I like 'Catch Without Arms' so much, but by God in the Heavens above, I do. So much.
When I first gave this to my friend, this was his response: "Bug Eyes" is awesome; ... Read More
Rating: - A long way from "El Cielo"
"Catch Without Arms" is very well written, crafted, and produced, minus all the B.S. tracks (like the Brushstrokes on "El Cielo"). This album is without a doubt the best music that Dredg has created to date. I've read some other reviews for this album and see that some idiots have totally slammed it because they heard it could be compared to Tool or Mars Volta. Let me make it clear that this album separates Dredg from all other bands. I thought they had a very Incubus-type sound on "Leitmotif", but ... Read More
