2nd studio album by Spleen United sees the band turn to a stronger indietronica style. The album starts off really promising with the two best tracks on the album and then fades out.
Again, the band really has a feel for great tunes but the album just turns out rather inconsistent, and I must admit that I found that the two best bands of the genre were Turboweekend and Veto with Spleen United appearing more international, more artsy, and in a broader perspective: more promising. However, they do not accomplish what they sat out for, and this second effort just runs out in the sand.
