DEPSWA
"Two Angels and a Dream" (Geffen)
Reviewed by Snidermann
The first time I listened to Depswa's "Two Angels and a Dream" nothing really caught my ear. There was nothing really bad there, but nothing really outstanding, either. But I never write a review after listening to a CD just once. Hence, after I listening to "Two Angels..." a few times and (I think) finally figuring out this band a little - I discovered that, for the most part, I really like them.
"Two Angels and a Dream" fluctuates from slow tempo-ed, simmering rockers that are sometimes a bit boring to some nicely aggressive rock'n'roll. My recommendation would be for the band to focus on the faster, harder stuff because that's where they really shine.
Depswa may not be instantly likeable but it only takes a couple of spins to figure them out. The band has the talent and the sound to make an impact, especially with the harder stuff.

Rating Guide:
A classic. This record will kick your ass.
Killer. Not a classic but it will rock your world.
So-so. You've heard better.
Pretty bad. Might make a nice coaster.
Self explanatory. Just the sight of the cover makes you wanna hurl.
