Every time I hear Double Thriller I think about the idea that a society only gets the artists it deserves, and how the album wrecks that idea if only for the space of this--and the next, even better, eponymous--CD. The songs seem to come out of nowhere--rich and delicate, melodious, brittle, intense. It's a wonderful album; I can't believe these songs are in the world with so little fuss made about them. "Skin" is such a lovely song I keep wanting to thank someone, somewhere, for it.

You know how craftsmen are supposed to sculpt and whittle an object down a point where its soul is released to the world? Well, that's how every song on this puppy sounds. This album remains a rare thing: a non-compromising record that sounds freaking awesome.

I've had this CD since it came out and it's never left my list of favorites. It's incredible. Peaceful, heartwrenching, dopey-grin-inducing songs that won't leave my mind.

A swirling mix of opiated pop, floating brittish invasion style tunefullness, and understated soul, "Double Thriller" is an interesting little platter. Alex Chilton's "Like Flies on Sherbert" comes to mind with its eclectic production, as does "Muswell Hillbillies" by The Kinks. The cd's title seems to toss a glance in Michael Jackson's direction, and Nick Drake almost haunts a few of the more melancholic arrangements. But this album has its own signature and I'm looking forwards to The Gland's next.

One of the Best Albums in Recent History

Ross Shapiro and his band of cohorts have silently created one of the best albums of the 90's. It's too bad they haven't been accepted by a wider audience, but artistry doesn't demand popularity. I'm waiting for their next album with baited breath.
