I can't wait for this album, it's been so long coming!! 7 years since the first album...eek! Must say I really don't like the sampler track - it sounds unprofessional and unfinished. My expectations for the album have been significantly lowered, but I still can't wait! Wish they'd give us a release date...

Hey Varune

Yes, I got the album last year. It's very different to the first, but you can probably tell that from the previews. More acoustic and stripped down. There are some great songs and some not so good songs. I personally don't rate it as nearly as good as the first and the production seems a bit patchy in places (maybe slightly unfinished, or unpolished?), but overall it's a nice listen. If you like the preview sounds check it out. Overall its quite a sad, melancholic-sounding album...it has the feel of a 'breakup record' lol and last year when I was going through a breakup some of the lyrics struck home.

Tracks I would recommend checking out: Spinning, I Just Tell Myself, Dream Believer and Goodbye. :)

Oh, any Balligomingo fan definitely must check it out - all I would say is don't expect anything like the first album. That is one of my all-time favourites, can it really be 2002 it was released? Let's hope they don't take as long to release album number three.

Two other releases from last year worth checking are 'Messages' by Blue Stone and 'Labyrinthine Heart' by Sleepthief...both are very enjoyable albums in the style of the original Balligomingo :)
