The Alarm - "Sigma" New Release

What do you think of that Alarm album Reubent?
I was suitably impressed.

Right now a huge fave of mine.

August and Everything After ... Counting Crows.

Cassette.

@uberwaltz - I just went through the brand new record - "Sigma" for the first time last night. It sounds very much like last years release - "Equals". I like both. I especially like "Two Rivers" from "Equals" and "Two Rivers-Reprise" from "Sigma".

I saw The Alarm - Equals Tour last year and it was fantastic. The new songs from Equals came off better live than they do on the album. I'm hoping I can make it to Nashville tomorrow night to see them again. I'll have a second chance to catch them on the Sigma Tour in Milwaukee or Cleveland later this summer.

That said, I like both albums, but I don't love them. Sometimes the lyrics seem a bit contrived and sometimes Peters seems to be trying too hard. Peters has been through a lot and it is impressive that he is still going as strong as he is. I just wish the songs held up a little better, like "Strength", "68 Guns", "The Stand" and "Spirit of '76" from back in the day.
