Amazon.com Remember the days when every band from Bon Jovi to the Fixx embraced keyboards like a long-lost lover? Whether you consider rock's tickling of the electronic ivories the good ol' days or the devil's spawn will determine how much you are going to like a good part of Eve 6's Horrorscope. Once again, the band enlists producer Don Gilmore, who expands the group's sound with dense, unsustained vocals; basic Van Halen riffs ("On the Roof Again," "Amphetamines"); and a rhythmic urgency that resurrects images of '80s group the Call ("Rescue," "Promise"). Eve 6 recorded their debut barely after the ink had dried on their high school diplomas. There's little doubt that the talented young trio holds tremendous promise (the band members can write head-bobbing hooks blindfolded), but in terms of fresh songwriting creativity, Horrorscope falls short of the efforts of similarly precocious contemporaries such as Ash and Supergrass. This is largely Gilmore's album, and when Eve 6 find the confidence to toss aside the studio-trickery crutch and the pop-metal security blanket, they should grow into a formidable rock band. --Beth Massa

awesome! February 6, 2010 C. Bennett (Northern Canada) i realize this album has been out for a while but i just got it and really enjjoy the whole disc all tracks are great
Can I Give This 10 Stars?!? February 4, 2010 Veil_Lord (San Jose, CA) I could not love this album much more. It's my all time favorite. You know how you normally have a couple songs that you like on an album. In the old days you'd just not listen to the bad ones, now (if you know before hand) you just get the good ones? Well here you'll do great just going for it all. There are songs I don't like as much as others, of course, but there's not a single one on there that I'd find unpleasant to listen to.
Some of the songs are maybe not mass market appeal, but they also include the simply awesome Here's To The Night which was played on the radio a lot back in the day. The explicit warning doesn't seem to be that big a deal, however you don't want to be playing the song Promise loudly in the work place as it has quite a few f-bombs. I find my self moving back and forth on which songs I like on a given day. Sure the songs are the same band so kind of similar, but there is enough difference in the music to have different songs for different moods.
My only gripe is some of the songs seem like they could have used another verse or two. Some are a little light on lyrics, which detracts ever so slightly. I like to get a little bit of story out of my music, but the musical hooks are still there and it's simply a great album.
Eve 6 makes good on their 'promise' and delivers a top notch follow-up to their much loved debut! September 28, 2006 Damian Gunn (I am everywhere) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
When Eve 6 dropped their debut album everyone I knew was obsessed with `Inside Out'. Since then I've listened to and owned all of Eve 6's albums, and it always turns out that `Horrorscope' spends the most time in my CD player. To me, this is the definitive Eve 6 album delivering hook laden tracks from open to close and keeping my head bobbing and my feet tapping constantly. My favorite track here is still the first single `Promise' which to me is one of the catchiest songs I've heard in recent years, but that's not to say that the rest of album pales in comparison. `Enemy' and `Amphetamines' are also standouts, and then of course there's the balladish type track known as `Here's to the Night' that really garnered them attention. Max Collins still makes good use of his lyrics, using phrases in multiple ways and singing them with enough flow to make every word appear effortless. Great album all the way around, sure to please any fan of Eve 6 and I'm quite certain it will become a favorite!
Superb! June 26, 2006 Moffi frank (Nor) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This band is one of my favorite bands, stumbled over it one day i was watching a film, the song Inside out played, and i managed to track it down, thats when i bought this album, and i love it, the catchy lyrics and sweet music make them great to listen too, always makes me feel good, favorites are "heres to the night" - and "inside out" - "rescue", and ofcourse the rest is just as good. Definitely you should check this Album out.
Probably known forever the CD with the song played at graduations June 15, 2006 Demention X (Waterbury CT) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This CD is great to listen to. They definitely put themselves in this CD (not just what the label wanted them to do too!). Of course "Here's to the Night" is probably one of the most popular songs played with High School graduations. BUT don't let that distract you from the true beauty of this CD!
