This album takes me back to my days of Sonic the Hedgehog and Ecco the Dolphin. In fact I'm positive there are some melodies from one of those games ripped off at the start of the track Cover My Eyes. 8-bit 80s sounds are always cool in my books and this album’s good but it’s a bit too kylie-squeally-girl pop for me to love it. Here rhymes are a bit naff at times too.The videos are pretty cool as far as production value goes, love the eighties vibes going on, but I still get annoyed when I see a lack of visual emotion in musical performances it just comes off as looking like you’re trying to act all “rock star” and not just being a rock star. Check out Bulletproof for some cool graphics and bland performance.
