    MATW's new style is bare-bones rock--a far cry from the sampled and sequenced sounds of its beginnings. This release is less rockin' sonically than last year's "Seasons Of Love." Acoustic guitars grace most of the album, making best sense in "All These Questions", with cool layers of sound in the intro. A re-written version of "No More Innocence" from the band's first album is included here with the no keyboards approach. Another highlight is the long-awaited "Isn't Sex A Wonderful Thing", which the band showcased at C-Stone two years ago.
