Great CDSeptember 29, 2008 Monica Plumley(Davis, WV) I heard this band on Pandora.com first, and I really liked their music. They are on my 311 station, my sublime station and many others. So I just had to get one of their CDs. I'm very happy with it. Love this band and so many others thanks to pandora.com - I get to hear new music that's completely in tune with music I already know and love.
Much better then the mainstream stuff that is out there.August 27, 2008 David Weaver(Commerce City, CO United States) It's crazy what the major labels will back and push to get air time while quality music like this disappears into nothingness.
This is a great album. 'nough said.
A little lateJune 1, 2007 Music Lover 123 I regret to say that i only started listening to dispatch about a year ago. it is horrible that such a great musical group had to seperate. Anyway this was the first dispatch cd i got and it is undeniably one of the best cds i own, its mellow, chill, and feel-good. YOu can listen to this cd when you feel bad and it will make you feel happier, you can listen to this cd when you feel good and youll feel better. I bought this cd after my friend let me listen to the general on his ipod. Since then i have been an avid dispatch fan and the general remains one of my favorite songs of all-time. Late-comers like me there is no need to fear...ill hopefull see you at their reunion concert this summer...by the way if you like dispatchand want more check out state radio chad (dispatch's lead singer) formed the band and they are pretty good.
Their best, and one of my favorite cdsSeptember 6, 2006 isaac This cd is one of my favorites. I have listened to it over and over and i never get bored, and i always find something new that surprises me. Bang Bang offers enough variety to please almost every listener of every genre. Perhaps the best testament to Dispatches ability is its loyal fan following. Ask any die hard dispatch fan, and you will be amazed by how much they know, and how much they care. Even after the break up, still the music is being spread across the nation.
Now onto the music. There is a little bit of everything. It starts off with here we go, which is an upbeat rocker that really gets this album started. From there it goes into bats in the belfrey wich is along the lines of here we go. After the first two the cd really slows it down and kicks back and relaxes. Almmost everyone hears about dispatch by way of the song, the general, and i assure you even though it is a great song, its not the best. Bang Bang is next and perhaps the most chill song yet.
From there you take a ride through the cd that will leave you wanting more. Finally it ends with two coins wich, lyrically and musically, i find to be the best on the cd. If you like dispatch you can also check out State Radio, which was formed by one of the members of this band. If you are looking to get into dispatch, this is a great way to start.
