Joe Strell isn't too bad to have playing in the background, I'll say that much. His album opened with, "Art of My Existence", which wasn't too strong a song but the bass line was really good so I still was ready to give him a chance.

I had Joe on while I checked my email, checked my facebook, complained on aim about my room mates, fed the cat. I only noticed the songs changing because suddenly there would be silence. I vaugely had some sense of the songs changing besides mechanically doing it. None of the other songs really stood out at all, except "Art of My Existence" because it meant 'the album is starting' and "Again" because it meant the album was done. "Again" does have a bit of a haunting quality to it though that makes it ALMOST sort of different from the rest. But for this album, don't even waste yr time downloading it. Just wait til it plays in the background of the next movie you watch.
