Happy Hollows - Imaginary: C-

Music: 6/10 Vocals: 3/5 Lyrics: 2/5 Production: 3/5
Total: 14/25 = C-

I loved the Happy Hollows first album, even with a C rating. It was raw. Energetic. Immature. And fun. "Imaginary" shows some maturity in the music writing but somehow misses the mark on the energy they brought the first time. Lieutenant, which clocks in at 5:06, is a rambling mess. It has probably 4 songs in it all mashed together. Tambourine tries to be clever but instead is just kind of dumb. Fortunately, Labyrinth and Colors return to their roots with fun music and nonsensical lyrics. The lyrics in Colors are just the band members yelling out colors. No message. Just fun. But I'm disappointed by their second EP and hope they do better on their third outing.
