I disagree with Bandcamp's policy of soliciting only positive reviews - "Why do you love this album?" Actually, I don't! I find that the relentlessly upbeat instrumentals (no vocals) become rather wearing after a few tracks. It might work well in concert, but this is not an album I will return to often or ever play all the way through in one sitting.
