Dons last album completes the Don McGlashan week and this set is the usual fare from the man, which means lovely quaint indie pop songs with stories. This one rocks out a little more than the last one in places with a nice Pink Floydish guitar flourish on "18th Day" which I quite enjoyed. Another consistent album of quality music, although nothing that stands out above the rest. Rating 3.5/5.
