Sounds Like: there are too many chords and words...trying to make a point that has already been made, ineffectively, by many before...rock meets country at the meat grinding counter, the reulting goo gets squeezed through a nozzle the size of a gnat's spizzle, expanded by a digital fart machine, rolled out and baked and served at a fireman's picnic in Burley,Idaho..otherwise, it's quite meodic and lovely, evoking a time that has never existed...I have a good idea - you tell me what it sounds like..!!
