It’s a bit of a shame that No Consensus didn’t take more advantage of Mike Hays’s burgeoning songwriting skills. The upside though, is that his muse came out here, in what is quite possibly some of the best music to come out of the Ragman scene outside of No Consensus. Joe turns in some great material here as well, but Mike is definitely the star of this album, wherein we really seem to witness him finding his voice. If you think I gush too much, check back with me after the one-two punch of “Leslie (Signs Pointe Weste [I Wish I Could Hate You Now])” and “They Laugh.”
